It doesn't matter where the bulb is in respect to the battery, as long as the circuit is complete, the bulb will light up.

Describe how a battery causes electrons to move in a circuit?

The electrons don't actually move the electricity; the charge moves. The electrons slowly drift in the opposite direction from the charge.


What occurs to voltage in a series and parallel circuit?

In a DC parallel circuit, equal voltage is applied to each device that is connected in parallel. For example, if three devices are connected in parallel to a 9 volt battery, each device will have 9 volts applied to it. In a DC series circuit, the sum of the voltage drops across each device connected in series equals the source voltage. So say you have three devices connected in series, and they are connected across a 9 volt battery. Each device will have less than 9 volts across it, but if you add the voltage drops across each device togther, it will equal 9 volts. Batteries in series have an additive effect to the voltage. A single AA battery has 1.5V. Two in series will have 3.0V. Batteries in parallel do not experience an additive effect to voltage. To answer this question briefly there is a big difference. The major difference is the resistance the circuit offers when the same components are wired in series or parallel. I do not know how much you want to know, but resistance of a component is measured in Ohms. An easy way to think of ohms is how much force or energy is required to move an object. The less ohms a circuit has the more it can do with the same amount of energy, which in some cases can be a bad thing. To move on, lets say you have two light bulbs, to give a cliche example, and both are 2 ohm load. Now if you wired these two light bulbs in series, connect positive of one bulb to negative of the other and then the others to a battery, the bulbs would be half as bright as one bulb to the same battery. Yet if you wired these in parallel there brightness would be the same as if one light bulb was connected to the circuit. This is because the voltage in the parallel circuit doesn't decrease when you add a light bulb, whereas on the series circuit it does decrease. Hope that helps


What is a battery conductor?

yesA battery is condutor because it free to move


How does a series circuit light 2 bulbs?

The current flow is identical.


How much does it cost to move an electricity meter?

The meter is typically installed in the main circuit panel of the house. If you want to move it, you can do it as part of a service / panel upgrade. We did this when we moved into our new house - we replaced the 1950s vintage main circuit panel and 100A service with a newer 200A panel and service. It was about a grand, but we didn't actually move the panel from where it was, so it may cost more for what you want.

What happens to a bulb when you move it closer to a battery on a circuit?

The bulb will get brighter


What will happen to a bulb when you move it closer to the battery on a circuit?

When you move a bulb closer to the battery in a circuit, it will receive more electrical energy as the resistance decreases. This will cause the bulb to shine brighter due to the increased flow of electrical current passing through it.


What happens to a battery when you move it closer to a circuit?

When you move a battery closer to a circuit, it can create a potential difference that may influence the circuit's electrical behavior. If the circuit is designed to connect to the battery, bringing it closer can facilitate a connection, allowing current to flow and powering the circuit. However, if the circuit is not designed to connect to the battery, there may be no effect. The battery's proximity alone doesn't change its stored energy; it simply affects the potential for electrical interaction.

Do electrons from a battery reach the bulb before it lights?

No, electrons from a battery don't reach the bulb before it lights. An electric current is not simply a flow of electrons. Rather, an electron in a circuit will move only a short distance and then nudge another electron into motion, which will do the same thing with yet another electron. So while the current moves through the entire circuit, individual electrons do not unless it is left on for a very long time.


What supplies energy to move elecricity through a circuit?

In a circuit, the energy needed to move electricity is provided by a power source such as a battery or a generator. This power source creates a voltage difference between the circuit's components, which pushes the electric charges to flow through the circuit.


What seems to be making the light bulb turn on in your circuit?

The light bulb in the circuit turns on due to the flow of electric current, which is facilitated by a closed circuit. When the switch is closed, it completes the circuit, allowing electrons to move from the power source through the bulb, causing it to emit light. The resistance in the bulb converts electrical energy into light and heat, resulting in illumination.


How does a battery cause electrons to move through an electric circuit?

A battery creates an electric field within the circuit, which applies a force on the electrons, causing them to move. This movement of electrons creates an electric current that flows through the circuit, allowing electrical devices to function.


How does electricity flow from a battery through a circuit?

Electricity flows from a battery through a circuit when a complete path is created for the electrons to move. Electrons move from the negative terminal of the battery through the circuit to the positive terminal. This flow of electrons creates an electric current that powers the components in the circuit.
