In a parallel circuit, if one bulb breaks, the other bulbs will continue to operate normally. This is because each bulb has its own separate path for current to flow, so the failure of one does not affect the others. The total resistance of the circuit increases slightly, but the overall function remains unaffected. This design is advantageous for ensuring that not all lights go out if one fails.

How do you make to make the perfect curcuit?

The things you need for your curcuit are: A light bulb, Bell wire, A Battery and a conducter ex. pin, paper clip Attach the bulb together with the battery using the bell wire. With the two ends of the wire connect to the conducter and see if light bulb comes on.


Are lamps in house connected to series or parallel?

They can be connected to either supply. A bulb in series that fails, will cause all the other bulbs to go out. A bulb in parallel that fails, will have no adverse effect on the other bulbs in that circuit


Why do you think one light bulb stayed on when the other light bulb was unhooked in a parallel circuit?

In a parallel circuit each bulb has the same voltage applied so if one bulbfails all the others will remain lit.
