Generally we use electric switches to put on or off the light,fan,computer,music system,etc.An electric switch is a device that is used to open or close an electric circuit.when we open an electric circuit the flow of electric current inthe circuit stops and when we close an electric circuit an electric current flows through it.

What are some reasons an electric circuit would not work?
The switch may be off or there is a break in the wire that stopped the electron flow in the circuit
What would happen if we didn't have natural gas?
We would die. Well back before the 20 century yes we would all die but now we would be able to all have electric things.
Why do we got electric shock during consumption of water in electric heater?
When you switch on the electric heater, electricity passes through the water in the bucket for warming.If any one comes in contact with the water when the switch is on, he/she is supposed to get electric shock. Nonsense! There are electric heater resistance elements in the water. No electricity is intentionally introduced to the water, if there were the water would be electrified throughout the piping network all the way back to the source including every house connected to the system. Before it ever got that far out of hand the circuit breaker would trip due to the direct short circuit eliminating the hazard. It sounds more like you have an element starting to fail and/or a grounding issue.[
Can I put an electric shower on a timer switch?
Most timer swiches are designed to operate with loads of up to 13 amps or 3 kW. Electric showers use around 8 kW (30-35 amps), so you would need a high-current timer.
What position does the switch have to be in for a circuit to work?
The switch would be open.
What would happen if electric switches are made with thermoplastics?
Nothing will happen to the switch. If you are talking about switching the conductive parts of a switch with thermoplastic parts then the switch will not operate as the manufacturer designed it to.
If a switch is said to be open will a curcuit work?
A circuit will not work if a switch is open, be because it is not allowing the electricity to flow. Where as if it was closed it would give the electricity a sealed off path to flow through.
What happens if you placed an insulator in an electric field?
You would then have an insulator immersed in an electric field. Nothing would happen.
What would happen if you stuck your finger in an electric socket?
Well you would get electracuted.
What would happen if the switch of a glowing torch breaks?
ambot
Where would one use an automatic transfer switch?
An automatic transfer switch would be used when one needs to switch energy from one source to another and cannot do it manually. It can be used to switch from electric to a generator when needed.
What would happen if all the electric cars were gone?
there would be no more of those cars
What would happen if the electric charge of the universe is not conserved?
It's infinate...
What would happen if you put a rubber cord into an electric socket?
nothing
Why would both left right '95 Thunderbirdird electric windows go out at the same time?
I would be suspicious of the master switch on the driver's side, unless the passenger one does not work with it's own switch. I would also be suspicious of the fuse for that circuit. Sometimes strange things happen that you want to associate a reason for ironic happenings.
What would happen if you activated a vacuum or hoover in space?
1. You wouldn't have any electric 2. Nothing would happen as there is no air in space.
What would you use a u switch for?
You would use a u switch for turning off and on a light, like a light switch. It could be used as some sort of an electric converter to power anything in your house or where ever you are.
