What is the only thing that can use power in an electrical circuit?

The load that is connected to the circuit is what draws the power of the electrical circuit.


Where does an electrical circuit end?

power source


What part of circuit is not necessary for the circuit to be complete?

By definition an electrical circuit is a route or path that starts and finishes at the same place. So there is no part of an electrical circuit that is not necessary, because if there were it would not be an electrical circuit.An electrical circuit needs a power source. Conductors to transmit the voltage from the power source to the load. The final component of the electrical circuit is the load that you want to energize.If you remove any of the components there will be an open circuit and the load will be impossible to operate.


What job does a wire do in a circuit?

The wire in a circuit helps to pass power to the electrical appliances.


What does an electrical circuit need to provide the power?

An electrical circuit needs Voltage-electrical pressure pushing electrons, and Amprege-electron flow through a conductor. P=IxE (Power= Voltage x Amprege.


Why inductor is used in electrical circuit?

To improve the power factor


What is point to point electrical connection mean?

It is the begining of electrial circuit, or where the power comes from, to the end point where it will be used. "Example" circuit breaker panel box has the power, circuit breaker controls the power the cable allows the power to flow to the outlet so when electrical device is plugged in it works.


What is an equation for power?

Power = (energy used)/(time to use it)Power dissipated by an electrical circuit =(voltage across the circuit) x (current through the circuit)or(resistance of the circuit) x (square of the current through the circuit)or(square of the voltage across the circuit)/(resistance of the circuit)


Why is it not feasible to power an electrical device with static electricity?

it can blow a circuit


What does a completed electrical circuit provide?

A completed electrical circuit provides a current path for electron flow. Circuits that are complete (have completed electrical connections) will "power up" and do what they are supposed to do when energized. An on/off switch completes or breaks an electrical circuit allowing it to be energized or de-energized.


What is the flow of an electrical current in a circuit outside the power source?

Usually a circuit is connected to a power source, which could be a battery or an outlet. When this happens current flows through the circuit. The power supply raises electrical charges through the required potential difference, and then in the circuit the charges flow down the potential gradient giving up their energy.


Does a computer use electrical energy?

A computer uses electrical energy to power all of its components and processes. The actual amount of power uses varies based on the number of parts used, speed of the components, and the amount of calculations being made.
