What is the difference between series and parallel connections?

In parallel circuits the current flows through two or more paths while in series circuits the current flows along a single path.

In series circuits the current flows through two or more paths while in parallel circuits the current flows along a single path.

The cohesiveness of parallel circuits dtermines their vicosity while in series circuits it is the inverse of their amplitude that determines their internal accuracy.

None of these answer choices are correct.

The total resistance of a parallel circuit is always...

less than any of the individual resistances.

greater than the sum of all the individual resistances.

greater than any of the individual resistances.

equalto the smallest of the individual resistances.

In a series circuit with 4 bulbs:

all of the bulbs become dimmer if another bulb is added

There are many paths for electricity to take

the remaining 3 bulbs stay lit if one burns out

In a series circuit with 4 bulbs:

all of the bulbs become dimmer if another bulb is added

There are many paths for electricity to take

the remaining 3 bulbs stay lit if one burns out

In a series circuit, the electric current

only travels away from a battery

What would happen if you took one bulb out of a series circuit?

None of the other bulbs would light

It would not change the circuit

You would create a short circuit
