How are series circuits used in everyday life?
A light switch in series with an electric light will turn off the light upon opening. This will happen so quickly that humans can't even detect the time lag between flipping a switch and the light turning off. Safety devices like circuit breakers and fuses are in series with the electric outlets in a house.
Why are series circuits useful?
Series circuits are useful if you want a warning that one of the components in the circuit has failed. They also use less wiring than parallel circuits.
Where are series circuits used?
A common application of series circuit in consumer electronics is in batteries, where several cells connected in series are used to obtain a convenient operating voltage.
How are series and parallel circuits used in everyday life?
An example of a series circuit is a string of Christmas lights. If any one of the bulbs is missing or burned out, no current will flow and none of the lights will go on. Parallel circuits are like the smaller blood vessels that branch off from an artery and then connect to a vein to return blood to the heart.
