If a circuit had a gap in it would it work?
Nope... if the circuit has a gap in it - the path of electrons is interrupted, and that would stop the circuit from working.
What happens when a circuit has a gap in it?
When a circuit has a gap in it, everythig stops working because the electricity wont be able to flow around the whole circuit
What does a switch do in a curcuit?
A switch can create a gap in a circuit causing the circuit to turn on or off!
What will happen if there is a gap in electric circuit?
If the gap is small then you may get 'arcing'. This is where the electricity will jump from one point to another (cable end to cable end). This could cause a fire. If the gap is too large for the electricity to jump then in effect there will be no-circuit.
What is the importance of air gap in magnetic circuit?
It is important to have the air gap in a magnetic circuit so that everything works properly. The air gap allows magnetic flux flow to the main source; without it, it would not work properly.
What happened when you turned on the switch of the light?
A switch is placed in an electrical circuit in order to place a gap when the switch is off, so the circuit is broken. When the switch is on, the circuit is complete and the electricity can flow round the circuit.
How does a lightswitch work?
A light switch fills(on) or makes (off) a gap in an electrical circuit.
When is a switch or key open?
A switch is open when the key is not plugged in, thus creating an air gap or discontinuity in the circuit. No current can flow through such a circuit.
What can be used to power a light bulb or appliances and can travel only in a closed circuit?
This describes electricity. Whatever it powers, nothing flows if there is a gap in the circuit.
Why will a bulb not light if a switch is open in a circuit?
It will not work because it has to be closed so the electricity can go to the bulb.
Dodge Ignition pickup circuit to reluctor gap?
Depends on year usually .06 to .08
Will the bulb light if the filament is broken Why?
No, the broken filament breaks the connection which electricity needs to complete the circuit.
