If you remove one bulb from a string of lights all the remaining lights will go out. are the lights in a series circuit or parallel circuit Explain?

1 Answer

Answer :

Removing any bulb breaks the continuity of a series circuit, stopping the flow of electrical current. Removing a bulb in a parallel circuit does not interrupt the current flow, so the remaining lights continue to conduct electrical current.

Description : What will happen to the remaining light bulb if one of the light bulbs burns out?

Last Answer : I assume you re asking that if a bulb in series circuit burnsout, then what happens to the other bulbs. If a bulb in a seriescircuit burns out, other bulb do not light, since the circuit sbroken.

Description : Why the other bulb remains lighted when you unscrewed one of them in a parallel circuit?

Last Answer : In a parallel circuit, in this case the electrons still have a complete circuit. For example, if it is a DC circuit, the electrons can still go from the negative terminal of a battery, pass through the bulb thatis not unscrewed, and continue to the positive terminal in the battery.
