What is a loop of electrical conductors called?
Electric circuit
A loop with a break in it that prevents current from flowing is called?
an open circuit.
What type of energy flows in a circuit?
Quite often, the word "circuit" is used for an electrical circuit. In that case, the energy is electrical energy.
What does volt measure?
Voltage measures the electrical potential between two parts of an electrical circuit. Also called electromotive force. Voltage provides the 'pressure' to drive electrons round a circuit.
The object that uses up the energy being delievered in an electrical circuit is called the?
Any electrical appliance would be the object eg. a motor, a light, a heater etc
Does blu-tack break an electrical circuit?
No, an electrical approved switch is used to break an electrical circuit.
The drawing of an electrical circuit is called?
The drawing of an electrical circuit is called a.............= schematic drawing.
Does an open circuit have a break that interrupts the flow of electrical charges?
Of course it has a break . open circuit means infinite resistance , so no electrical charge can flow through it .
What constitutes a complete electrical circuit?
A complete electrical circuit occurs when it is possible for electrical current to flow through the electrical devices in it.
What is a electrical circuit?
An electrical circuit is a path which electrons from a current source flow. Electric current flows in a closed path called an electric circuit. The point where those electrons enter an electrical circuit is called the "source" of electrons. The point where the electrons leave an electrical circuit is called the "return". The exit point is called the "return" because electrons always end up at the source when they complete the path of an electrical circuit. The part of an electrical circuit that is between the electrons' starting point and the point where they return to the source is called an electrical circuit's "load". ---Nerd
What device will open or close the break in a electrical circuit?
A switch.

What is switch purpose?
A switch is used to make or break an electrical circuit.
Why a wheatstone circuit is called a bridge?
An electrical circuit used to measure an unknown electrical resistance is called a Wheatstone bridge. It is called a bridge because it balances two legs of a bridge circuit.
What is the wire in an electrical circuit called?
In electrical terminology it is called a conductor. On PC boards it is called a trace.
