They will continue to do what they were doing before the light bulb broke. If they were lit they will stay lit. If they were off they will stay off.

This question could be improved by specifying that "the other light bulbs" are in that same circuit in which the broken light bulb was connected. Also, if the light bulb is broken in an inert atmosphere, it may well continue to burn.

What is the effect if a bulb is broken in a parallel or series circuit?

parallel circuit: Providing that the breakage does not result in a short circuit the other bulbs will still light. series circuit: If the breakage results in a short circuit through the bulb the other bulbs will light more brightly. If the breakage results in a breakage of the connection through the bulb then the other bulbs will not light.


Why does it not effect any of the light bulbs when you take one light bulb out from the parallel circuit?

In a parallel circuit, each light bulb has its own separate path for the current to flow, so removing one light bulb does not interrupt the current to the other light bulbs. The remaining light bulbs will continue to work because the circuit is not broken.


When the two bulbs are in placewhat happens?

When two light bulbs are in place, there will be a circuit created where electricity can flow through both bulbs. If the circuit is intact and the bulbs are functioning, they will both light up. If one of the bulbs is faulty or the circuit is broken, then both bulbs may not light up.


Which type of circuit a series circuit or a parallel circuit would allow the light bulbs to burn brighter?

In a parallel circuit, each light bulb would receive the full voltage of the power source, allowing them to burn brighter compared to a series circuit where the voltage is divided among the bulbs.


How is energy transferred in a parallel circuit to produce light?

In a parallel circuit, each branch receives the same voltage, allowing multiple devices (such as light bulbs) to operate independently. Energy is transferred from the power source to the light bulbs through the interconnected branches, which illuminate when the circuit is closed and electrons flow through the bulbs, converting electrical energy into light energy.

Will adding light bulbs to a parallel circuit causes all of the light bukbs to shine less brightly?

No. In a parallel circuit, the resistance gets cut in half, so logically the bulbs would do the opposite and get brighter.

What two circuits one series and one parallel use light bulbs to provide resistance. Both circuits have the same number of light bulbs?

Series circuit gives higher resistance compared to parallel circuit.

What is the use of parallel circuit?

It is very beneficial to have a parallel circuit... for example: 1. If one light in a parallel circuit goes out, the other light bulbs will remain lit Whereas if a light in a series circuit goes out, all bulbs will go out 2. If not all light bulbs are needed on, you can turn them off with the remaining light bulbs staying on
