Bob F Posted February 13, 2009 Report Posted February 13, 2009 (edited) Several lamps are connected in parallel to a voltage source. If one light burns out, all the other lamps: will go out. will get brighter will not be affected. will get dimmer. See the diagram in the post below. Edited February 13, 2009 by Bob F Quote
Bob F Posted February 14, 2009 Author Report Posted February 14, 2009 Yep, as most of you answered, the other two lamps will be unaffected. Each branch has its own path to ground, so the current in each of the two remaining branches will remain the same, therefore the brightness remains the same. Quote
