What happens to an electrical current when a circuit is closed?
an electric current can only flow when it has a closed
path, or closed circuit, to flow through.
Asked in Home Electricity
Why can an electric current flow when the circuit is closed?
The electric current can flow in a closed circuit because the
path is closed.
Asked in Home Electricity
How is an electric current different from an electric circuit?
An electric current goes through an electric circuit, if it is
closed.
Asked in Physics
When does the electric current flow?
An electric current will flow if there is a voltage, and a
conducting path (usually a closed circuit is required).

What is circuit that is complete and unbroken with flowing electric current?
This is a closed circuit.
Asked in Home Electricity
Why can an electric current not exist if an electric circuit is broken?
It's just a fact of life, you need a closed circuit to carry a
current.
Asked in Electricity and Magnetism
Does an electric circuit provide a complete open path for electric current?
electric current flows in closed loops
Asked in Home Electricity
What is the name for the status of a circuit that has breaks which electric current that cant flow?
The name for the status of a circuit that has breaks which
electric current that can't flow is called a Closed
Circuit. Electric current cannot flow through an open
circuit.
Asked in Home Electricity, Energy
Electric current can flow through a continuous path which can also be described as a circuit?
Electric current can flow through a continuous path which can
also be described as a closed circuit. Conversely, any break or
opening in a circuit is called an open circuit. Charges can only
flow through a closed circuit.
Asked in Electronics Engineering, Physics, Electricity and Magnetism
An electric current can only flow through a circuit that is?
"closed"
"complete" (loop)
Asked in Home Electricity
When electric current flows through a metal wire?
When electric current flows through a metal wire the circuit is
said to be closed.
Asked in Home Electricity
Why should an electric circuit be closed?
An electric circuit needs to be closed to allow the load on the
circuit to operate.
Asked in Energy
A complete path for electric current to follow is called a?
An Electric Path
A complete path for an electric current to follow is called a
closed circuit. Ampere is the SI unit for measuring an electric
current.

What happens when a switch is closed in a series circuit?
When a switch is closed in a series circuit, the current starts
to flow through the circuit's load.

What device is needed for current to flow in an electric circuit?
Too vague of a question. As long as it is a closed circuit it
will flow.
Asked in Science
What is a closed curcuit?
a circuit with all its elements as conductors and one in which
electric current flows through it is called a closed circuit.It
also can be conclude as when its a closed circuit its a complete
circuit and electrical energy can flows
Asked in Home Electricity, Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering
Why does an electric circuit have to be closed for it to work?
yes it does have to be a closed circuit
Asked in Home Electricity
What are open and closed circuit?
the open circuit in which current is not easily flow and in
closed circuit the current is easily flow because circuit is
closed
Asked in Science
What is a electrical curcuit?
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. Its so simple, though my friend from
extraminds help me with proper answer.

Why do electric cells have 2 terminals?
to form an electric circuit two terminals are required
it is being closed and electric current passes through it .

electric circuit
Asked in Home Electricity, Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering
What is a closed circuit?
A closed circuit is a kind of electric circuit in which the path
that the electrons follow forms a complete circuit.
