What happens to the other lamps in a series circuit if one of the lamps burns out?

In a series circuit, if one lamp burns out, it breaks the circuit, causing all the lamps to go out. This occurs because the current can no longer flow through the circuit due to the interruption. As a result, none of the other lamps will light up until the burnt-out lamp is replaced or the circuit is otherwise repaired.


What happens to lamps A and B if lamp C burns out as shown in the circuit?

If lamp C burns out in a circuit where lamps A and B are connected in series with lamp C, then both lamps A and B will also go out. This is because the circuit is incomplete when lamp C fails, preventing current from flowing through lamps A and B. In a parallel circuit, however, if lamp C burns out, lamps A and B would remain lit as they have alternative paths for current. The specific behavior depends on how the lamps are connected in the circuit.


In the circuit if the fuse of lamp S went out which lamps would remain lit?

If the fuse of lamp S went out, the lamps that remain lit would depend on how the circuit is configured. In a series circuit, all lamps would go out since the circuit is broken. In a parallel circuit, only the lamp connected to the same fuse as lamp S would go out, while the other lamps connected to different fuses would remain lit.


What is an electric circuit with components pleased one after the other?

It is a series circuit, where all the lamps (for instance) is on the same wire. If one lamp fails, the rest lamps will also go out.


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.


If each lamp is rated 12v 24w what is the current consumed by each lamp?

2 amperes in a parallel circuit. I = W/V. It is true provided that 12v are delivered to the lamps in parallel circuit. In a series circuit, the voltage is divided among the lamps so that the total current is probably 2 amperes for all lamps.


How many 8 milliamp lamps can you put on a 20 Amp circuit?

There are 1,000 miliamps in 1 amp. As the NEC limits you to loading a lighting circuit to no more than 80% you can have 16 amps or 16,000 miliamps on that circuit. That would mean you can have 2,000 lamps of 8 miliamps each.


If the rheostats are replaced by three incandescent lamps can you verify the thevenin's theorem?

Yes, if the rheostats are replaced by three incandescent lamps, you can still verify Thevenin's theorem. Thevenin's theorem states that any linear circuit can be replaced by an equivalent circuit consisting of a voltage source and a series resistor. By analyzing the behavior of the circuit with the incandescent lamps, you can determine the Thevenin equivalent circuit and verify the theorem.


What happens when a curcuit is closed?

To close a circuit in electrical terminology is to close any open devices that are in series with a connected load. Once this happens the current will flow through the load and the load is then termed as energised. In the case of a motor circuit the motor will operate. In the case of a lighting circuit the lamps in the circuit will energise and light the area in which they are installed.


Why is an open circuit called open?

An open circuit is called open because the circuit has an opening, a disconnection. In other words, there is an open space in the circuit in which the electrons cannot move through.
