What must be done to the loose wire in the circuit for the light bulb to light up?

Connect it to the positive terminal of the battery

Connect it to the negative terminal of the battery

What is the role of a switch in an electric circuit?

To convert electrical energy to light

What happens in a series circuit if one light bulb burns out?

No current can flow and no devices will work

The other light bulbs will continue to work

The circuit will increase in voltage

The circuit will decrease in resistance

How do series and parallel circuits differ?

In the number of loops they contain

In the type of current they use

In the materials used for wiring

What are the two essential parts of all electric circuits?

Electric power plant and switch

What happens when the switch in a circuit is turned off?

The circuit is open and current cannot flow

The circuit is closed and current flows

The voltage source is disconnected

What type of energy conversion occurs in a light bulb within a circuit?

To list the materials needed for construction

To outline the plumbing system layout

What does a resistor do in a circuit?

Converts some of the electricity to other forms of energy

What is a key difference between series and parallel circuits?

Series circuits have one loop, parallel circuits have multiple loops.

Series circuits have multiple loops, parallel circuits have one loop.

Series circuits are used in house wiring, parallel circuits are used in flashlights.

Series circuits allow current to bypass a burned-out bulb, parallel circuits do not.

What happens if a light bulb burns out in a series circuit?

No current flows and other devices stop working.

Current bypasses the burned-out bulb and other devices keep working.

The circuit becomes a parallel circuit.

The circuit becomes more efficient.

What happens if a light bulb burns out in a parallel circuit?

Current can still flow through other loops.

No current flows and other devices stop working.

The circuit becomes a series circuit.

The circuit becomes more efficient.

What type of circuit is used in house wiring?

Both series and parallel circuits

Neither series nor parallel circuits
