In your seat you're insulated from the current.
An electrical network is an interconnection of electrical components (e.g. batteries, resistors, inductors, capacitors, switches) or a model of such an interconnection, consisting of electrical elements (e.g. voltage sources, current sources, resistances, inductances, capacitances). An electrical circuit is a network consisting of a closed loop, giving a return path for the current.An electric circuit is a path in which electrons from a voltage or current source flow. Electric current flows in a closed path called an electric circuit. The point where those electrons enter an electrical circuit is called the "source" of electrons. The point where the electrons leave an electrical circuit is called the "return" or "earth ground". The exit point is called the "return" because electrons always end up at the source when they complete the path of an electrical circuit. The part of an electrical circuit that is between the electrons' starting point and the point where they return to the source is called an electrical circuit's "load". The load of an electrical circuit may be as simple as those that power electrical appliances like refrigerators, televisions, or lamps or more complicated, such as the load on the output of a hydroelectric power generating station.
• In a parallel circuit, there are junctions in the circuit so the current can flow around the circuit in more than one way. • In a series circuit the current decreases as more bulbs are added. •In a parallel circuit, as more bulbs are added, the current increases. • This is because bulbs added in parallel offer less resistance
ohm's law ..... E = I x R but the facts are that most of the time the voltage (E) is fixed so I = E / R so the higher the resistance, the lower the current. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistance A resistance resist the current to flow and makes the current lower in an electrical circuit. The voltage in an electrical circuit is given from the source (battery etc) and will not be higer by adding a resistance, but in the part of the electrical circuit where you put the resistance the voltage could be higer (and it would then be lower other parts)
The thoughts of the main character
One main part of any household branch circuit is its circuit breaker. It is designed to protect the electrical circuit from damage caused by current overloads or short circuits. It is designed to disconnect the electrical flow within a few milliseconds if it detects certain electrical faults. Then, to be able to provide power to the appliances and lights in the house, there must be fixed outlets and socket outlets supplied by the various branch circuits. Nothing can be provided with electrical power unless there is a main breaker panel to contain all the separate circuit breakers and also to provide the house with a main power on-off switch.
The condition that will result anytime the human body becomes part of an electrical circuit will be an electrical shock. As the neutral side of a load is grounded all a person has to do to become part of the circuit is touch the "hot" feeder side of the circuit and any grounded metallic object that forms part of that circuit.
By definition an electrical circuit is a route or path that starts and finishes at the same place. So there is no part of an electrical circuit that is not necessary, because if there were it would not be an electrical circuit.An electrical circuit needs a power source. Conductors to transmit the voltage from the power source to the load. The final component of the electrical circuit is the load that you want to energize.If you remove any of the components there will be an open circuit and the load will be impossible to operate.

An electric circuit is a system of several parts. The circuit cannot function without all of them therefore there is no 'main' part. Essential parts are; power source, conducting material, load.
Batteries have chemical energy stored inside them. Of course, when they provide a current, this chemical energy is transformed (in part) into electrical energy.
That's what the battery does.
The generic name of that part is the LOAD.
It is the component that brings the potential in the form of voltage to the load.
Yes. The metal frame and body of the car is electrical ground.
The circuit is incomplete, you will have no continuity, no flow of current to the load or other components. The voltage across every component in the circuit is zero. No part of the circuit stores or dissipates any energy. In short, the circuit doesn't work.
