opens and closes the circuit
What else can I help you with?
What happened when you turned on the switch of the light?
A switch is placed in an electrical circuit in order to place a gap when the switch is off, so the circuit is broken. When the switch is on, the circuit is complete and the electricity can flow round the circuit.
How does a circuit turn a switch on and off?
A switch makes a physical break in the electric circuit. With the circuit broken the electricity can not flow. When the switch is turned the other way the circuit is completed and the current/electricity can flow.
What position does the switch have to be in for a circuit to work?
The switch needs to be in the "on" position for the circuit to work, allowing the flow of electricity through the circuit. In the "off" position, the switch breaks the circuit, stopping the flow of electricity.
Where can i place the switch in the lemon circuit?
Not sure what you mean with "lemon circuit", but in an electrical circuit, the switch can be just about anywhere.
What does a switch do to effect a series circuit?
For an electrical circuit to keep going, it cannot be interrupted. When the switch is adjusted, the electrical flow is interrupted. Move the switch again and the flow is restored. Without a switch a circuit is no longer considered a complete circuit. Simple fifth grade science.
When the switch is closed it means that?
There is a complete path for the electricity to flow. The opposite of an open circuit. If a light switch is on and the light comes on, the circuit is closed. If the switch is turned off, the light goes off because the circuit is open.
Used to open and close a circuit?
A light switch
What does a switch do in a curcuit?
A switch can create a gap in a circuit causing the circuit to turn on or off!
What can be put into a circuit to open the circuit?
A switch.
Does closing a switch allows electrical charges to flow in a circuit?
Closing a switch makes a closed circuit Opening a switch opens, or breaks the circuit
What is the device to break a circuit?
A switch is a device used to break a circuit. By opening the switch, the circuit is interrupted and electricity stops flowing. This allows for controlling the flow of electricity to different components in a circuit.
How does a switch control the flow of electricity?
When the switch is open, the circuit is not a complete circuit. Electricity needs a complete circuit of conductive material. The switch breaks the circuit causing the flow of electricity to be disrupted. When you close the switch, a full circuit is restored thus restoring the flow of electricity.
