Why must a circuit be closed in order for a current to flow?
A circuit must be closed in order for a current to flow because it helps keep a current flow pass. When the switch is closed on a circuit there is a constant flow. When the switches open the flow is disturbed around the circuit.
Why must a circuit be closed in order for current to a flow?
A circuit must be closed in order for a current to flow because it helps keep a current flow pass. When the switch is closed on a circuit there is a constant flow. When the switches open the flow is disturbed around the circuit.
The opposition to the flow of electrical current?
In a DC circuit . . . resistance. In an AC circuit . . . impedance.
How does a resistor affect the flow of current in an electrical circuit?
A resistor restricts the flow of current in an electrical circuit by resisting the flow of electrons. This causes a decrease in the amount of current that can pass through the circuit.
What does a load do to the flow of electrical current in a series circuit?
A load increases the flow of electrical current in a series circuit. No load, no flow.
What is a circuit with two or more branches for current to flow called?
Parallel circuit
What is a closed path through which current can flow?
A closed path through which a current can flow is called a circuit. Electric Circuit:)
What is the name for the status of a circuit that has breaks which electric current that cant flow?
The name for the status of a circuit that has breaks which electric current that can't flow is called a Closed Circuit. Electric current cannot flow through an open circuit.
Will the current flow in a circuit in which there is a gap between two wires?
No, the current will not flow in a circuit with a gap between two wires, as a complete circuit is necessary for current to flow. The gap creates an open circuit, preventing electrons from moving through the circuit. Current requires a continuous path to travel, and without that connection, there is no flow.
What happens to an electric current when a circuit is closed?
When a circuit is closed, meaning there is a complete path for the electric current to flow, the current will flow from the positive terminal of the voltage source through the circuit components and back to the negative terminal. This flow of current allows electrical energy to be transferred and work to be done in the circuit.
How a fuse controls the flow of electric current in a circuit?
A fuse does not control the flow in a circuit, it limits the current in a circuit. If the load in a circuit shorts out the fuse link melts and opens the circuit and stops the current flow and prevents the wires feeding the circuit from melting and catching fire. resist
How do switches affect open and closed circuits?
Switches control the flow of electric current in a circuit. In an open circuit, the switch is off, interrupting the flow of current. When the switch is closed in a closed circuit, it allows the current to flow continuously through the circuit.
