A circuit is a path for charge particles -- it conducts current. An inductor, a circuit component, generates a magnetic field, when an AC is on.

What flux that does not follow the intended path in a magnetic circuit?
leakage flux
What is the function of magnetic core in electrical machine?
The core, together with the machine's air gaps, form what is known as a 'magnetic circuit', which is a low-reluctance path that encloses the magnetic flux produced by its field windings, in order to concentrate that flux in the air gap through which the armature passes.
How do you know when you have a circuit?
tuned circuit
How is a magnetic field created?
A magnetic field is created around the path of travel of any moving charged particle. This is the only way to create a magnetic field, and it is why we call one of the four basic forces in the universe the electromagnetic force. A magnetic field cannot exist without the movement of a charge or charges to create it. Conversely, any charged particle that moves cannot move without creating a magnetic field about its path of travel.
What is meant by a magnetic circuit?
Lines of force go from a North pole of a magnet to the South pole external to a magnet, and through the magnet itself. This path is the magnetic circuit. It may be diverted and distorted by magnetic materials nearby.
What is the path of charge particle inside magnetic field when it enters a magnetic field at right angles to it?
Depending on the direction of the magnetic field and the charge on the particle, the charge would move in a circular fashion either clockwise or anticlockwise depending on the circumstance. Using the right hand palm (push) rule, find the direction of the force (palm) and the charge continues on that path in a circular motion. If the particle leaves the field, it continues in that direction traveling in a straight line unless under other influences.
Can you make an electrical current with an electrical field?
No. only flow of current develops electrical field. whereas magnetic field can make current to flow through a closed path. Absolutely YES. I wander how radios and TV works.AnswerYes, it is an electric field that causes current to flow in a circuit.
Why does a single phase AC series motor have a very short air gap?
All motors (and, indeed, generators) have a very narrow air gap. This is because the air gap forms part of the machine's magnetic circuit.A 'magnetic circuit' is the path in which the magnetic field produced by the machine's field windings is constrained, and is made up of silicon-steel in series with a very narrow air gap.Air has a very much higher reluctance (equivalent to resistance in an electric circuit) than the silicon-steel part of the magnetic circuit to the formation of flux and, so, must be kept as narrow as possible because reluctance is directly-proportional to the length of the air gap.
The magnetic field strength inside a current-carrying coil will be greater if the coil encloses a?
If the coil encloses an iron rod, then the magnetic field strength inside a current-carrying coil will be increased. This occurs because the air path in the coil is made shorter by putting in the rod. This in turn causes an increase in the field.
What effect does a magnetic field have on a charged particle?
Yes, a moving electron will create a magnetic field. Any moving charge will create a magnetic field around its path of travel. This is the basis for the electromagnetic force, which is one of the four fundamental forces in nature.
Why a short circuit happen?
Presumably, the current follows a path (a circuit) to do whatever it was "made" to do. If water, for instance, enters the circuit, a shorter path may develop, and the current will (partially) take the short circuit. Or a wire could become lose and short circuit the intended path.
A charged particle moving with a constant velocity enters a magnetic field?
when a charged particle is moving with some velocity it produces some magnetic field. If we place that charged particle in presence of external magnetic field it gets affected by that external field.
