In all probability you have a bad battery or a loose connection. If the voltage drops with the motor running, you probably have a bad alternator (or generator) or regulator.

Would the lights be lighter in parallel or series?

The VOLTAGE in a series circuits will be dropped in to the connected lights.So the light after no1 will get much lowyer than the first light.Because voltage drop in first light will cause that problem of light to lighter. But in prallel connection the voltages are divided in to equal levels.So no voltage drops in prallel connection, all lights get full voltage as applied in input mode.SO THE LIGHTS BE LIGHTER IN SERIES CONNECTION.


What is the effect of diode voltage drop as the output voltage?

The effect of diode voltage drop as the output voltage is that the input voltage will not be totally transferred to the output because power loss in the diode . The output voltage will then be given by: vout=(vin)-(the diode voltage drop).

What is the difference between voltage forward voltage and voltage drop?

Voltage is the potential difference between the source & any point in the circuit. The forward voltage is the voltage drop across the diode if the voltage at the anode is more positive than the voltage at the cathode (if you connect + to the anode). Voltage drop means, amount of voltage by which voltage across load resistor is less then the source voltage.
