What happens if a conductor was not metal but yarn?
Yarn is a very poor conductor. I you replaced wire in a circuit with yarn, there would be no current flow.
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.
What happens to an electric current when a circuit is closed?
If the circuit is closed the electric current will be closed as well.
What happens when a battery light the light bulb?
When the switch is turned it completes an electrical circuit. The circuit amperage flows through a high resistance filament in the bulb and it starts to glow. The bright glow from the filament and the reflector behind the bulb is what creates the flashlights beam.
What does a battery use to produce electricity?
a battery has potential ( voltage). without a circuit atatched to it nothing happens. But when used in an electic ciruit, like with a light bulb, current will flow(amps). current flow is what causes your light bulb to light. A battery has the pressure (voltage) so to speak to cause current flow. Generally, current flows from negative to positive ina complete circuit.
What happens to the current in a circuit if a volt battery is removed and is replaced by a 3 volt battery?
The battery cannot be removed quickly! Inductance of the wiring stores energy and keeps the current flowing and decaying smoothly. There will be an opposite polarity, higher voltage pulse on the battery terminals, limited by the circuit capacitance only.
What happens to the current in a circuit if a 1.5-volt battery is removed and is replaced by a 3-volt battery?
The battery cannot be removed quickly! Inductance of the wiring stores energy and keeps the current flowing and decaying smoothly. There will be an opposite polarity, higher voltage pulse on the battery terminals, limited by the circuit capacitance only.
What causes a posite current in a battery?
A electrical from a battery is the flow of elecrons through a circuit in the opposite dirrection to the current flow. This current flow also happens inside the battery between the plates.
What happens to the current in a circuit when one bulb is replaced by two bulbs in series?
current in series always stays the same
What happens to the current in a circuit if a 1.5 volt battery is removed and is replace by 9 volt battery?
Current will go up by a factor of 6 times in that scenario.
What happens to the total current provided by the battery as more bulbs are added to a parallel circuit?
The total current increases in this case.
What happens when a battery is hooked up to an open circuit?
nothings because they is no wire connected to the circuit so no current can flow through
When you add a second battery to a series circuit what happens?
Adding a seound battery to a series circuit will increase the voltage, and require less current to keep the lights (if there are any on) as bright. Say you have a 6v battery, then you add another 6v battery. the voltage of the circuit would be 12v
What happens to the current in a 1.5 volt battery is removed and is replaced by a 3-volt battery?
V = IR, so if you double the voltage without changing the resistance, the current will also double.
What happens if a conductor was not metal but yarn?
Yarn is a very poor conductor. I you replaced wire in a circuit with yarn, there would be no current flow.
What happens in a circuit if you increase the voltage of the battery driving it?
The power in the circuit will increase.
What happens to current in a series circuit?
the current in series will be same..
