This type of circuit is called a series circuit. Each bulb becomes a part of the circuit and if one burns out or is removed the circuit is open and electricity no longer flows through it.

If you draw a circle and mark an 'x' on its rim and call that the power source. The electricity flows out and through each light and back to the source. If you erase a part of the circle, to represent a blown bulb, the circuit is broken and the electricity does not flow.

How much electricity does Christmas lights use per hour?

The average strand of Christmas lights pulls about 1 amp, which is roughly the same as a 100 watt light bulb running on 120 volts. It's hard to say how much running it will cost you for electricity, but one thing is sure: no one wants to leave their light on all day, same goes with the Christmas lights.


Which is longer a piece of string that is 2 feet long a piece of string that is 10 centimeters long a piece of string that is 254 millimeters long a piece of string that is 1 yard long?

To compare the lengths, we need to convert all measurements to the same unit. A piece of string that is 2 feet long is approximately 609.6 millimeters, a piece that is 10 centimeters is 100 millimeters, a piece that is 254 millimeters is equal to 254 millimeters, and a piece that is 1 yard is about 914.4 millimeters. Therefore, the longest piece of string is the one that is 1 yard long.

What is the relationship between the number of supporting ropes and the machanical advantage?

Yes. Think this way. Say you have a 10 pound object supported by a single string system. The tension on the string is 10 pounds, and you must exert 10 pounds of force on the string, so that is (1:1). Now say you have a system where 2 strings support the weight. Each string has the same tension, which is 5 pounds, and you only have to exert 5 pounds force on the string (2:1 for 2 strings).
