उत्तर
- The parallel circuit will have the highest voltage across each bulb.
- In a parallel circuit, each bulb has the highest voltage.
- The appliance can be controlled individually using an individual switch when a parallel circuit is used.
- The working of the appliances is not dependent on each other when they are connected in parallel.
