What is an example of a series circuit?

Answer 1

Series circuits, I'm doing my junior cert science so this may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure an example would be Christmas lights.

If one blows they all are extinguished, because they share the one current of electricity.

Car lights are parallel circuits....

I can't think of another series one, but I hope I helped a bit.

Answer 2

Christmas lights are an example of parallel and series circuits. Christmas lights are typically strung in strings of ~50 lights in series. If you buy a string larger than this, you should be able to find the series groups of 50 lights, and where each of these is connected in parallel. That's why when 1 bulb goes out, a large portion of perfectly good bulbs do, too, but not all.

Answer 3

Maybe the most common example of a series circuit in the home is a switch and the light that it turns on and off. When the switch is closed so that the light is on, electric current flows from the main house panel through the line wire (usually black) to the switch, through the switch, and on to the light fixture (still in a black wire). At the light fixture the current runs into the center terminal of the light bulb, up to and through the filament and then back down to the screw base terminal and back to the light fixture into a white wire. Finally the current follows the white wire (usually right alongside the black wire, in a common jacket) all the way back to the breaker panel's neutral terminal to complete the circuit. Since the current must first flow through the switch to get to the light bulb, we say that the switch and the bulb are in series, or that they form a series circuit. That's how the switch actually does its job: when you turn it to the off position, it no longer lets the current flow through so that the current can no longer get to the light bulb and the light blub turns off.

Answer 4

Usually, Christmas tree lights.

Also, equipment where the tubes are connected in series to eliminate the need for a separate filament transformer.

Answer 5

Christmas lights! Christmas lights!
