What would happen if you added one battery to a parallel circuit of two light bulbs?
Adding one more battery to a parallel circuit of two light bulbs would increase the voltage across the entire circuit. This would cause both light bulbs to shine more brightly as they receive more power. It will not affect the current flowing through the circuit but will boost the overall energy provided to the circuit.

What happens in a parallel circuit when one battery is added?
When a battery is added to a parallel circuit, the total voltage in the circuit increases as the new battery adds its voltage to the existing voltage sources. The total current in the circuit may also increase as the additional voltage motivates the charges to flow through the parallel branches of the circuit.
What happens to the total current provided by the battery as more bulbs are added to a parallel circuit?
The total current provided by the battery increases as more bulbs are added to a parallel circuit. This is because each branch in a parallel circuit receives the full voltage of the battery, leading to more current flowing through each branch as more loads (bulbs) are added.
What happens to the current in a parallel circuit when more bulbs are added?
When more bulbs are added to a parallel circuit, the total current in the circuit increases because each bulb provides an additional path for current to flow. This is because in a parallel circuit, the current is divided amongst the branches, so adding more branches (bulbs) will increase the total current.
Does the current split in parallel circuits affect the overall resistance in the circuit?
Yes, the current split in parallel circuits does affect the overall resistance in the circuit. In a parallel circuit, the total resistance decreases as more branches are added because the current has multiple paths to flow through, reducing the overall resistance.
When more light bulbs are added in parallel to a circuit what happens to the total resistance of the circuit?
When more light bulbs are added in parallel to a circuit, the total resistance of the circuit decreases. This is because in a parallel circuit, the reciprocal of the total resistance is equal to the sum of the reciprocals of the individual resistances. More paths for current to flow mean less overall resistance in the circuit.

What is a parralell curcuit?
• In a parallel circuit, there are junctions in the circuit so the current can flow around the circuit in more than one way. • In a series circuit the current decreases as more bulbs are added. •In a parallel circuit, as more bulbs are added, the current increases. • This is because bulbs added in parallel offer less resistance
What happens to the voltage if batteries if they are setup in a parallel and a series circuit?
Assuming all of the individual batteries are the same voltage, if arranged in a parallel circuit the voltage is the same as any one battery. If arranged in a series circuit the voltage will be the sum (the total) of all of the batteries added together.
What would happen if you added another battery to a simple circuit of two wires a battery and a bulb?
SERIES: A. If the additional battery is added to the circuit in a "Series Aiding" configuration, the bulb would get brighter. However, it would probably burn out very shortly, if not immediately, depending on the power rating of the bulb. Flashlight batteries such as two and three cell flashlights are usually series aiding. B. If the additional battery is added to the circuit in a "Series Opposing" configuration, the intensity of the bulb would decrease or go out completely if the opposing voltages are equal. (you can do a little experiment with a three or four cell flashlight by reversing the polarity of one or more of the batteries. The reversed battery will be series opposing and cancel 1.5 volts of the other batteries.) PARALLEL: If batteries are added to the circuit in parallel, the intensity of the bulb would remain the same but the batteries would last longer. Be sure the battery voltages are the same when adding batteries in parallel.
If a new bulb is added and the electrical circuit becomes dimmer is it a parallel circuit?
No it's series circuit.
What will happen to the electric pressure differences across the battery terminals when a second long bulb is added in parallel to a single long bulb connected to a fresh battery?
there will be little or no change
If you have a DC passing through a circuit will the current decrease when you add a DC motor and if so by how much?
In the circuit where the DC motor is added, it was not specified whether the motor was added in series or in parallel to circuit elements. If it was added in series, it will increase circuit resistance and it will cause circuit current to go down. In parallel, the motor will reduce total circuit resistance, and circuit current will increase.
Why does the total circuit resistance decreases when more devices are added to a parallel circuit?

Does anything happen to the brightness of the bulb when you add an extra battery to a simple circuit?
We did this experiment in class, the more batteries added, the brighter the bulb will become!
What happens to the current in a parallel circuit when more bulbs are added?
When more bulbs are added to a parallel circuit, the total current in the circuit increases because each bulb provides an additional path for current to flow. This is because in a parallel circuit, the current is divided amongst the branches, so adding more branches (bulbs) will increase the total current.
How do you add a fixture to an electrical circuit?
Any devices that are added to a circuit and need the full line voltage to operate, are added in parallel to any other load devices or fixtures in the circuit.
