An electrical circuit must be complete i.e it must form a closed loop,for it to work. Current only flow if the circuit is complete. A complete circuit is one that consist of a Voltage source, a consumer like a bulb and conductors. The conductor then connects the consumer and the voltage source together forming a closed loop.
Electricity travels in a closed circuit when it does work.
Electricity travels in a closed circuit when it does work.
The work in an electric circuit is done by the flow of electric charge, typically achieved by the movement of electrons through a conductor. Work is done when a voltage is applied to the circuit, causing the electrons to move and transfer energy to the components in the circuit like light bulbs or motors.
A parallel circuit.
No
yes it does have to be a closed circuit
In a series circuit, if one component burns out, the circuit will not work because the current flow is interrupted by the burnt-out component. This is because components in a series circuit share the same current.
No.
because the circuit is not a full circuit so it wont work!
A series circuit will work if there is a closed path through which the current can pass, and a voltage source. Otherwise it won't.
in a series circuit or it will not work. Put it after the bulb
The switch needs to be in the "on" position for the circuit to work, allowing the flow of electricity through the circuit. In the "off" position, the switch breaks the circuit, stopping the flow of electricity.
