What is an electric current flow diagram?

This good? the current flows through the battery and light?


What happens when a battery light the light bulb?

When the switch is turned it completes an electrical circuit. The circuit amperage flows through a high resistance filament in the bulb and it starts to glow. The bright glow from the filament and the reflector behind the bulb is what creates the flashlights beam.


What could be causing the the battery light to stay on after replacing the battery in a 1993 dodge caravan?

The battery light indicates that the battery is not receiving a charging current. You may have a bad alternator or a broken drive belt (if you have a broken belt you'll have overheating and power steering problems too, though).


When the flashlight is on is it static or current electricity?

When the flashlight is ON , electrical current is flowing from one terminal of thebattery, through the light-bulb filament, to the other terminal of the battery.


In an electric current electricity flow how?

Electricity can flow in an electric circuit by a battery. The battery creates electrons, which flow through the wire, and then go into a light bulb. (That is how a light bulb in a circuit lights up.) A series circuit is a circuit with one wire that electrons can flow through. Also, there can be more than one light bulb connecting to the same wire. A parallel circuit is a circuit with light bulbs that have their own wire.ClarificationThe above answer, unfortunately, perpetuates the myth that current leaves a battery, and finds its way around a circuit. This is not the case at all. It is the load that 'draws' the current from the battery and it is the load that determines the size of that current.


What is the difference between an eco drive and a kinetic movement watches?

On an Eco-drive watch, the face of the watch is a solar collector that recharges the lithium battery through light (Natural or florescent). A kinetic watch winds itself through the movement of the wearer. It does not have a battery.


Does closed circuits work?

Closed circuits work, they have all the wires connecting from the battery, the switch and the lightbulb that is needed for the electrical current to flow through the battery through the closed switch into the light bulb and back into the battery. Therefore it works.


What will happen if you connect a battery to a small light bulb with a single wire?

Nothing will happen. It requires two wires to complete the circuit. Electrical current travels from the battery terminal through the wire to a metal portion of the base of the lightbulb. The current then travels up through the filament wire which glows as the current travels through. The current then travels back down the other side of the filament wire to the base of the bulb and thus through the second wire back to source, which is the battery.


Would you expect to find direct or alternating current in the filament of a light bulb in your home the filament of a light bulb in a car the output of a battery charger?

Light bulb in the home - alternating current (A/C) Light bulb in a car - direct current (D/C) Output of a battery charger - direct current Input of a battery charger - usually alternating current


Why is your battery light flashing on while you drive?

check the radiator. ;)


What is wrong if the alternator and battery were both replaced and are working but your car still does not holding a charge?

You have something that is ON and drawing current. Suspect, glove box light, trunk light, hood light, brake light, or a possibly stuck power window switch. this is what we thought when we had the same problem, it turns out that our alternator is ran through our computer, and the computer isn't sinding a signal to the alternator to charge the battery, i had to replace my computer and get another battery, i wouldn't drive very much if you have this problem until you get it fixed, otherwise your going to fry the battery and alternater all over again.


Can you drive a mini cooper s with the battery light on?

You can drive any car with the battery light on until the battery eventually runs down and the engine dies. The light is on because there is a problem with the charging system and more than likely it means the alternator needs replacing.
