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.
Are street lights on a series circuit or a parallel circuit?
Parallel. One light burning out does not stop all current flow to the other lights.
Why does a light switch turn on your lights?
A light switch turns on lights because when flipped, it completes a complete circuit.
Diagram of a closed circuit?
a closed circuit is a complete circuit with no breaks at all, one example:- a closed circuit occurs when you turn the light switch on an open circuit has a physical break in the circuit, which stops the flow of electrons. one example is when the lights are turned off, the switch creates a physical break in the circuit
What does a lamp in a circuit do?
Well, if current is flowing it usually lights up.
Are lights onor off in an open circuit?
If the lights are the load of the circuit, then the lights will be off if the circuit is open.
How do you make a circuit so the lights can be turned on and off separatley?
To design a circuit so that lights can be turned on and off separately, we connect the circuit in parallel.
In an closed circuit will the lights be on or off?
Lights are on in closed circuit. It means that is a current flowing when circuit is being closed.
When a home circuit breaker opens the lights in some rooms go off but the lights in some rooms stay on. Explain why.?
The circuit breakers in a panelboard feed separate circuits. The lights that stay on are on a different circuit than the ones that go off. To fine the circuit that feeds the lights that stay on, go to the panelboard and turn off the breakers one by one until the lights go out. This is the circuit that feeds that circuit of lights. Remember that lights and receptacles can be on the same circuit together.
What type of circuit off all lights when you take on bulb out?
If you remove one light from a chain of lights, and the other lights turn off, then it is a 'series' circuit.
What is a circuit in which electricity doesn't flow called?
In a lighting circuit an open circuit will turn off the light.
What can you use a parallel circuit for?
Christmas tree lights, this parallel circuit prevents one bulb failure from turning off the whole string of lights.
What causes the brake lights to work when the headlights are off but when you turn the headlights and running lights on the brake lights go off on a 1992 Plymouth Sundance?
Often this type of behavior is caused by a bad ground for the lighting circuit. Check the ground circuit for the brake lights.
Four recessed lights one circuit switch off three lights on one off?
This question is difficult to understand. Please explain what you mean.

How do you wire a toggle switch to LED lights and your speakers so that the lights light up when the bass hits but you can turn em on and off?
You can't run the LEDs directly off the speakers, you need a special drive circuit to go between. Then you turn that drive circuit on and off.
How do you cut back on electricity?
turn off the lights when you leave a room
