The definition of a switch is a device that closes and opens an electrical circuit.

opens and closes the circuit
The switch.
A switch.
A switch, switching transistor, or circuit breaker usually does.
Generally a circuit breaker (like a light switch) But I guess you could use a resistor of the right resistance If you are talking about the circuit breaker there is an electromagnetic coil in it which get magnetized on a specific amount of current and breaks the circuit
which devise closes or breaks the circuit
An electrical device activated by a current that opens or closes another circuit is called a relay. A contactor also falls into this category.
Ahhh the piercing closes and you need to get it repierced..
When the key is turned on, it closes an electrical circuit. That closes another electrical circuit which makes and electromagnet work. The electromagnet closes a circuit between the battery and the starter. That starts the car. So the key does not actually do any work to start the car but it tells the various circuits to get busy and start the car.
