This is called a closed circuit.
If current was not flowing, it would be open.
Closed circuit
Where I'm from, it's called a "circuit breaker".A circuit breaker.
It is called an alternating current
That is called electrical current.
meaning that the current from your power source doesn't return to the positive end (electricity flows from - negative, to + positive)
Because that's basically what "current" means - that there is something that flows. For comparison, water flowing in a river is also called a "current".
an open circuit.
That's an "open" circuit.
Current flowing through an ac circuit in which power consumed is zero is called wattless current.
The flow in a circuit is called the electric current and it is measured by voltages. The number of volts that are present in the charge will determine the strength of the electric current.
its called a direct current aka DC
Where I'm from, it's called a "circuit breaker".A circuit breaker.
Flowing electricity is called electric current.
Resistance is the ability to regulate the amount of charge flowing in a circuit.
An operating circuit, is by definition, complete. The electrons in a DC circuit flow from the -ve terminal of the power source, through the various components and switches etc, then to the +ve terminal of the power source.
The numerical representation of one coulomb of charge moving past a point in a circuit per second is called an ampere.
No. An earth wire (commonly called a ground wire) has no current flowing through it. It is simply a wire connected to the ground to discharge electrical current in a circuit.
Direct current circuit.
