If you have two 5 watt bulbs connected in series and then in parallel which circuit arrangement will give you brighter bulbs explain your answer?

Brighter in parallel.
In series the voltage is divided between the two bulbs,
thus the current will only be half
so that the power of each bulb will only be one quarter (of 5 watts) in the series set-up.

What is the equivalent resistance of the parallel circuit you have connected?
In principle, it is infinite. I have not connected a parallel circuit in ages.
How is a voltmeter connected in the circuit to measure the potential difference between two points?
The voltmeter is connected in parallel between the two points whose potential difference is required.
What happen if 4 resistor is connected in parallel and resistor 1 is connected as short circuit?
I'd have to see a diagram, as your description in words is unclear.
Should a Voltmeter always be connected in a series with a component?
Voltmeter should be connected always in parallel to a circuit ANSWER : IT should be in parallel except when used to measure current. Then it should be placed in series across a shunt.
If 3 1.5 V cells were connected in series what would the total voltage of the circuit be What about in Parallel?
4.5 volts in series; 1.5 volts in parallel.
Light bulb in parallel circuit brightness?
Two bulbs connected in parallel are brighter than two connected in series. The resistance of the circuit is lower, electrons can flow more easily.
What type of circuit will produce brighter lights is it series circular direct or parallel?
Parallel connections will draw more current than equivalent lights connected in series, so the parallel configuration will be brighter.
What is the equivalent resistance of the parallel circuit you have connected?
In principle, it is infinite. I have not connected a parallel circuit in ages.
If both series and parallel circuits have 1 cell and 3 lamps, which type of circuit would be brighter?
Parallel circuit.
How are the loads in parallel circuit connected?
Parallel to each other.
What is a circuit in which loads are connected side by side?
A circuit in which loads are connected side by side is known as a parallel circuit.
If additional resistance is connected in parallel with a circuit the supply voltage will decrease?
If additional resistance is connected in parallel with a circuit the supply voltage will decrease?
What happens to supply voltage if additional resistance is connected in parallel circuit?
No change in supply voltage as additional resistance is connected in parallel circuit.
What is a circuit connected in a single path?
parallel
How should a ammeter and voltmeter be connected in circuit?
Ammeter is coneccted in series with circuit but Voltmeter is connected in parallel.
Is the voltmeter always connected in series to the circuit?
in parallel
How is a zener diode connected in a cicuit to regulate voltage?
Zener is connected in parallel to the circuit
