What else can I help you with?
Why does electrical current flow along a single path in a series circuit and more than one path in a parallel circuit?
Because there is only a single path in series circuit and many paths in parallel circuit.
How to calculate a parallel circuit with more than one load in its branches?
If a 'parallel' circuit has more than one load in its (not "it's"!) branches, then it is not a parallel circuit, but a series-parallel circuit! To resolve the circuit, you must first resolve the total resistance of the loads within each branch.
What circuit is a circuit in which electrical current has more than one path to follow?
A circuit that has more than one path for the current to flow is a parallel circuit. The circuit must have two or more paths to be considered parallel. A circuit that has only one current path through multiple components is a series circuit.
Why parallel combination is preferred over series combination?
In a parallel circuit (with more than one branch), the current will still flow in the other circuit(s) even if there is a break in one circuit. This is not so with a series circuit, since it does not have branches: if there is a break in the circuit, there is a break in the circuit.
Which type of circuit the parallel circuit are use?
they are used for more power than a series circuit so you should use this one.
Is parallel circuit more advisable than series Circuit?
no series circuit is best. Actually it depends on the application, neither is always better.
What type of circuit has more than one circuit on a wire a series circuit or a parallel circuit?
A parallel circuit is :)
Why are parallel Christmas lights better than series?
In a series circuit, if any one bulb goes open the rest of the lights will go out. The current flow in a series circuit is common throughout the whole circuit. In a parallel circuit when one bulb goes open the rest remain on due to the configuration of a parallel circuit.
Is series parallel the same as parallel?
No, series parallel, as it implies has components of the circuit configured in both series and parallel. This is typically done to achieve a desired resistance in the circuit. A parallel circuit is a circuit that only has the components hooked in parallel, which would result in a lower total resistance in the circuit than if the components were hooked up in a series parallel configuration.
Why does electrical current flow along a single path in a series circuit and more than one path in a parallel circuit?
Because there is only a single path in series circuit and many paths in parallel circuit.

What makes a series circuit better than a parallel circuit for batteries in a flashlight?
Because the cell voltage in series is combined to achieve rated lamp voltage, at the same time ensure sufficient power.
How are parallel circuit lights better than series circuit lights using science facts?
In a parallel circuit, there are multiple paths for electricity to flow. So, if one switch is turned off there is still other paths for electricity to flow so the other lights can remain on. However, in a series circuit there is only one path for the electricity to travel. So, if the switch in a series circuit was turned off the electricity would stop flowing causing all the lights to go out.
Is it true that a parallel circuit has more than one pathway unlike a series circuit?
yes
What circuit is a circuit in which electrical current has more than one path to follow?
A circuit that has more than one path for the current to flow is a parallel circuit. The circuit must have two or more paths to be considered parallel. A circuit that has only one current path through multiple components is a series circuit.
Is total resistance less than smallest resistor in a series parallel circuit?
no
