Circuit Review

The picture shows an electrical circuit. This circuit is a series circuit because: 

• It has 3 light bulbs.
• The same current flows through all three light bulbs.
• It uses a single battery.
• The electrical current is divided between the three light bulbs.

Which of the two circuits would have the brightest bulbs? 

• A
• B

What kind of circuit is this?

• series
• parallel

In a parallel circuit if one of the light bulbs burns out the rest _________.

• stop the flow of electricity
•  can still light up
•  will go out
• of the light bulbs burn out also

A material which electrons are able to move through easily:

• Circuit
• Insulator 
• Resistance 
• Conductor 

when the switch is closed.....

• both bulbs TURN ON
• both bulbs STAY ON
• both bulbs TURN OFF
• both bulbs STAY OFF

If one light goes out in a parallel circuit what will happen to the rest?

• None will go out
• All will go out
• Two or more will go out
• They will look for a conductor

If one light burns out in this parallel circuit what will happen to the rest?

• The others will stay lit
• All will go out
• Two or more will go out
• Check the battery

Which one uses less wire? 

• Parallel circuit 
• Series Circuit 

What kind of circuit is this?

• Series
• Consecutive
• Parallel
