Does an open circuit have a break that interrupts the flow of electrical charges?

Of course it has a break . open circuit means infinite resistance , so no electrical charge can flow through it .


What is the flow of an electrical current in a circuit outside the power source?

Usually a circuit is connected to a power source, which could be a battery or an outlet. When this happens current flows through the circuit. The power supply raises electrical charges through the required potential difference, and then in the circuit the charges flow down the potential gradient giving up their energy.

Do electrons flow in only one direction?

Yes. Electrical current only flows in a closed circuit. If it were an open circuit, there would be no current.AnswerAn interesting question. The answer is.... not necessarily! I say this because a capacitor is an open circuit, yet it allows d.c. current to flow for a short period of time (while it charges), and it allows a.c. current to flow continuously.
