How to Build a Simple Parallel Circuit with Light Bulbs

In this article, we will show you how to build a simple parallel circuit with light bulbs. This is a great project for beginners to learn about electricity and how circuits work. ### What you will need * 2 light bulbs * 2 batteries * 2 pieces of wire * A circuit board or piece of cardboard * Electrical tape ### Steps 1. Start by connecting the positive terminal of one battery to the positive terminal of one light bulb. 2. Connect the negative terminal of the same battery to the negative terminal of the other light bulb. 3. Connect the remaining two terminals of the batteries to the two remaining terminals of the light bulbs. 4. If you are using a circuit board, you can simply solder the wires to the board. If you are using cardboard, you can use electrical tape to secure the wires in place. ### What happens when you turn on the circuit? When you turn on the circuit, the electricity will flow through the wires and light up both light bulbs. This is because the light bulbs are connected in parallel. In a parallel circuit, the electricity flows through all of the components in the circuit, so both light bulbs will light up. ### What happens if you remove one of the light bulbs? If you remove one of the light bulbs, the other light bulb will still light up. This is because the electricity will still flow through the other light bulb. ### Conclusion Building a simple parallel circuit with light bulbs is a great way to learn about electricity and how circuits work. This is a fun and easy project that anyone can do.
