If one more light bulb is added to a series string of light bulbs while the voltage supplied across the
ends of the string remains constant, then the total resistance of the string increases, causing the
current in the string to decrease, and every bulb glows less brightly than it did before the new one
was added.
The bulb is dim.Because,the voltage is drops in series connection so you add more bulbs in series the last bulb got low voltage that reason for the bulb is dim
We did this experiment in class, the more batteries added, the brighter the bulb will become!
A parallel circuit will not effect the other bulb. If the bulbs are in a series circuit the other bulb will not turn on.
If one light bulb in a series circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will go out, until the failed bulb is replaced and the series circuit is completed again.If one light bulb in a parallel circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will still work.
SERIES: A. If the additional battery is added to the circuit in a "Series Aiding" configuration, the bulb would get brighter. However, it would probably burn out very shortly, if not immediately, depending on the power rating of the bulb. Flashlight batteries such as two and three cell flashlights are usually series aiding. B. If the additional battery is added to the circuit in a "Series Opposing" configuration, the intensity of the bulb would decrease or go out completely if the opposing voltages are equal. (you can do a little experiment with a three or four cell flashlight by reversing the polarity of one or more of the batteries. The reversed battery will be series opposing and cancel 1.5 volts of the other batteries.) PARALLEL: If batteries are added to the circuit in parallel, the intensity of the bulb would remain the same but the batteries would last longer. Be sure the battery voltages are the same when adding batteries in parallel.
In a series circuit, if another bulb is added, it is going to dim.
No it's series circuit.
The resistance is increased, the voltage across each bulb is decreased and the current through the circuit is reduced.
A: Adding any resistance bulbs or whatever in a series circuit will reduce current and will reduce total power. In this case the bulb will glow dimmer as any additional bulbs are placed in the series circuit. this is true if the same input source is kept constant.

That will depend on whether they are added in series or parallel.
In a parallel circuit, each bulb receives the full voltage of the power source, so all bulbs shine at their full brightness. In a series circuit, the brightness of each bulb decreases as more bulbs are added because the voltage is shared among all bulbs.
We did this experiment in class, the more batteries added, the brighter the bulb will become!
ANSWER: The brightness of both bulbs will decrease. If the bulbs are identical the current will decrease to 0.2 Amps. This is a simple series resistive circuit, the more bulbs you add in series both the amperage and bulb brightness will continue to go down.
becase the electricity is taken by both bulbs and it is divided
If you added more batteries in parallel, then the bulb would shine for a long time. If you added more batteries in series, then the bulb would burn very brightly for a short time and then 'burn out'.
A parallel circuit will not effect the other bulb. If the bulbs are in a series circuit the other bulb will not turn on.
