You can't really talk about the power of a circuit. In electrical problems you have to be very careful about using the correct term. If you mean the current flowing in the circuit, and by opening the load you mean opening the switch which isolates it, then the total current will decrease. If you mean the voltage, this won't change.

What happens to the power output of each lamp if more lamps are connected in parallel?

The lamps will get dimmer. In a parallel circuit, voltage is constant. Whereas, in a series circuit, amps are constant.


In a parallel circuit does the power of each branch add up?

Yes, the total power dissipated through the circuit is equal to the sum of the power of each branch in a parallel circuit.


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

What is a parallel circiut?

Something that contains a voltage circuit and wires.


Why a voltage only in parallel?

Depends on what circuit you're refering to, a parallel circuit has parallel lines because it allows for voltage to pass through the circuit, giving more power.


What kind of circuit is a power bar?

A power bar is a type of parallel circuit where multiple outlets are connected to a common power source. This allows multiple electronic devices to be connected and powered simultaneously.

What is the current called when it flows from and back to the power supply in a parallel circuit?

The current that flows from and back to the power supply in a parallel circuit is called branch current. Each branch in a parallel circuit has its own current flow that combines to form the total current drawn from the power supply.


Why is the total power equals the sum of the individual values of power in a series circuit or a parallel circuit is used?

The total power equals the sum of the individual powers because power is the rate at which energy is supplied. Whether you have a series or parallel circuit, the total power comes from the power source.


What is the difference between parallel and series?

If you are referring to an electrical circuit, a series circuit is wired in such a way that if one object is removed from the circuit, the circuit is broken and everything within the circuit loses power. In a parallel circuit different components of the circuit can be removed without disabling power to the rest of the devices within the circuit.
