• 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

∙ 15y agoA parallel circuit is one in which an electron flowing through one element / wire is not required to go through all the other elements and wires to get to the positive terminal of the battery / power supply.

∙ 13y agoThat is when there are two or more elements, said to be "in parallel", meaning that part of the current will flow through one element and part through the other.

What is a curcuit in which there are no gaps?
If there are no gaps in a curcuit, it is a closed curcuit.
What is an electric curcuit?
An electrical circuit is a collection of electrical devices which are connected in a loop for electricity to flow through from high potential to low potential. A battery connect to light bulb is one simple form of so-called circuit :)
What is the drawing of an electrical circuit called?
The drawing of an electrical circuit is called a circuit diagram, or schematic diagram. It is a graphical representation of the electrical components and their interconnections in a circuit. It uses standardized symbols to represent different components such as resistors, capacitors, transistors, switches, and wires. The lines connecting the symbols in the diagram indicate the flow of electrical current through the circuit. Circuit diagrams are used to design, troubleshoot, and repair electrical systems, and can be found in technical manuals, books and online resources.
What is the difference between height and length?
No. Length is a two-dimensional measure, whereas height is a 3-dimensional measure. Something (a 3-D object) having height, will also have length. But a 2-D object can never have any height. Example a picture of a table has no height "literally" (we can just make an assumption). But an actual table (which is 3-dimensional object) has height. Height is the distance of the object's top from the earth. Heigth is measured vertically. Length is measured horizontally. It is parallel to the ground.
What is a curcuit in which there are no gaps?
