The brightness of an incandescent light bulb depends on the voltage applied across its terminals. Connecting one, two, or five light bulbs of the same rating to a battery in parallel will provide the same brightness from each bulb.

Why bulbs connected inparallel?

all the bulbs must in parallel because all must get the same voltage.......in parallel voltage is constant.if they are connected in series they will not get same voltage


Why should ammeter still be connected in a series despite the fact that the bulbs are already connected in parallel?

Because the ammeter connected in parallel will act as a short circuit.


Are lamps in house connected to series or parallel?

They can be connected to either supply. A bulb in series that fails, will cause all the other bulbs to go out. A bulb in parallel that fails, will have no adverse effect on the other bulbs in that circuit


Why are two bulbs in parallel bright when you build a parallel circuit with two bulbs a one d- cell battery?

Two bulbs in parallel are brighter than the same two bulbs in series, given the same potential voltage, because there is twice the available voltage to each bulb.


If you have 3 light bulbs on a single circuit what kind of circuit do you have?

Parallel


When three bulbs connected to a battery in parallel circuit what will happen to the brightness of the bulbs?

The brightness of three bulb would be mare than one


What will be the brightness of the third bulb when we attach one bulb to a parallel connection of two bulbs with same power?

since all the bulbs are connected in parallel the voltage supplied for all the bulbs are same......so third bulb also glows with the same brighteness......this is same as the tube lights connected in our house.............


How would you identify a defective light bulb if 15 bulbs are connected in parallel?

it will be the one that is dark


Suppose you have a number of light bulbs connected on a circuit with each bulb on a separate branch what happens if one of the bulbs burns off?

As they are connected in parallel (each has its own branch) the remaining bulbs keep shining exactly as they did before.


How will a single burned-out bulb affect the string of lights if each light is attached to its own wire?

When bulbs are connected in series to one another, a failure of one bulb will open the circuit and the remaining bulbs in the line will go out because they have no power. However, bulbs in the line preceding the failed bulb will continue to be lit because their source of power has not been interrupted. When bulbs are connected in parallel, a failure of one bulb will have no effect the remaining bulbs because the power is not routed through any single bulb alone.


The electric bulb in your household circuits are connected in parallel what happens to the line current and line voltage as you turn on more light bulbs?

The line current increases when more bulbs are switched on in parallel, since more parallel current paths results in lower effective resistance. The line voltage should not change in response to any normal use of electric power in a single house.


Does the same current pass through each bulb?

If the bulbs are connected in series, the same current passes through each bulb. However, if the bulbs are connected in parallel, the current will split between the bulbs with the lower resistance receiving more current.
