The whole circuit fails - because the action of the bulb blowing cuts the circuit.

Why does the potential difference change in a series circuit?

In a series circuit, the total potential difference provided by the power source is divided among the components in the circuit. As current flows through each component, there is a voltage drop across each one. This results in a reduction of potential difference as you move along the circuit.


How is a series circuit different to a parell circuit?

The difference between a series and parallel circuit is that a series circuit is connected in such a way that the same current intensity flows through the elements while a parallel circuit is connected in such a way that the same potential appears across their terminals.


What is the potential voltage across the circuit components in a series circuit?

In a series circuit, the potential voltage across the circuit components adds up to the total voltage of the circuit.


What is the advantage of a parallel circuit over a series circuit.?

In a parallel circuit, all the external resistors are supplied the same potential difference which is not possible in a series circuit. Also in a parallel circuit, every resistor or component can be individually turned on or off without affecting the rest of the circuit.


What happens if there is a break in a series circuit?

The series circuit becomes an open circuit because there is no remaining path.


What is the difference between series and parralal circuit?

difference between series is one pathway through circuit,difference between parralal is more then one pathway through circuit.


What happens to current in a series circuit?

the current in series will be same..


If you unscrew the second bulb in a series circuit while the batteries are in a parallel circuit what happens?

The first lamp will go out. ANSWER: any lamps in series the first or the last if unscrewed will cause all lamps to extinguish no matter whether the source potential is in series or parallel


What happens in a series circuit if the resistance is halved?

If you add a second resistor, the resistance of series circuit will increase.


Why pottential difference across different ends of the conductor is different in the series connection?

In a series circuit, the total potential difference provided by the power source is divided among the resistors. Each component experiences a portion of the total voltage drop based on its own resistance, resulting in different potential differences across each component. This is why the potential difference across different ends of the conductor is different in a series connection.


What happens when two or more capacitors are connected in series across a potential difference?

When two or more capacitors are connected in series across a potential difference, the total capacitance decreases and the total voltage across the capacitors is divided among them based on their individual capacitances.


What happens to the current in the series circuit?

current remains same in series while divide itself in parallel circuit
