it prevents electricity to flow. i hope that is right
The current flow would cease to flow. That it the premier function of a switch, to isolate the load from the voltage source.
The circuit would stop working.
The electric current stops flowing.

When a switch is closed the path through the circuit is continuous.
Closing a switch in an electrical circuit will complete the circuit. The supply voltage will then be applied to that circuit, and current will flow through that circuit.
Its means there is no continuity between point Ato point B. Ex. A light switch : When the switch is off it opens the circuit and electricity does not get to the light, when the switch is on the circuit is closed and the light will turn on.
When an electrical switch is in the off position, the circuit is interrupted. When the switch is on, the circuit is open and complete.
Nothing. An open circuit means no current is flowing. When the circuit is closed, current flows, the filament of the bulb is heated by the current and glows, giving off light. But when the circuit is open, nothing happens.
maybe because its a rule or law...
to protect the source from overloading a switch can be opened as a circuit breaker, fuse, overload protection schemes
When a switch is opened (turned off) the circuit is broken and the electricity stops flowing, lights and other devices cease to work. Once the switch is turned on (closed) the electricity will once more flow and lights and other devices will work once more. A good example is when you enter a dark room. You switch on the wall switch, which turns on the light in the room, and you can see what you are doing.
When the switch is opened, the charge will drop to zero.
current through the switch become 0.and switch become a high value resistor.
