Why does the light turn on as soon as you flip the lightswitch?

The light is connected in a electrical circuit. The electricity will only pass through the circuit if the circuit is closed. A switch can open and close this circuit by simply not making contact with the next wire so the electricity can not be passed on. When you turn on the switch, the circuit gets closed again and the electricity will run through, so to the light. Because electricity has the speed of light (+-300 000 km/h) it will seems like the electricity reaches the light immediately. Plus the neutral travels through the filement of the bulb and down the switch wire giving an instant closed circuit when switch is closed
