In an electric circuit the ground prevents current from flowing in the circuit.?
false
In an electric circuit the ground prevents current?
false
What is a handle type switch?
what prevents excessive flow of current in a circuit
A loop with a break in it that prevents current from flowing is called?
an open circuit.
What is an electric current that cannot flow called?
An electric current that cannot flow is called an open circuit. This occurs when there is a break in the circuit which prevents the flow of electrons from moving through the circuit.
How a fuse controls the flow of electric current in a circuit?
A fuse does not control the flow in a circuit, it limits the current in a circuit. If the load in a circuit shorts out the fuse link melts and opens the circuit and stops the current flow and prevents the wires feeding the circuit from melting and catching fire. resist
What is an open circuit in electricity and how does it affect the flow of electrical current?
An open circuit in electricity is a circuit that is incomplete or broken, meaning there is a gap where the electrical current cannot flow. This interruption prevents the flow of electricity, causing the circuit to be non-functional and no current can pass through it.
What happens when you open a switch in a series crcuit?
A closed series circuit is one where the current flows through all devices in the circuit. Opening a switch prevents current from flowing in the circuit and it becomes simply an "open circuit". Any device that operates with current (light, LED, motor, etc) will no longer function.
What a device that protects an electric circuit from too much current?
Circuit Breakers and Fuses limit the amount of current flowing through the circuit.
Explain how the amount of current that flows out of the battery is related to the amount of current in the branches of the circuit?
Kirchoff's Current Law: The signed sum of the currents entering a node is equal to zero. This means that the current leaving the battery is equal to the sum of the currents in the branches of the circuit.
Why current cannot pass through a insulator?
Insulators have high resistance to the flow of electric current due to their tightly bound electrons which do not allow the movement of free electrons. This prevents the flow of electricity through the material, causing it to effectively block the current.
What do you understand by the term fuse in an electric fuse circuit?
Fuse is a device that acts as a traffic controller in the electric circuit, it means it breaks the circuit when the power of current is more than what it it needed and prevents the possible damages ...
