An electric circuit is opened whenever a part of it is not connected to anything.

What happens to an electric current at a switch?

At a switch, the electric current can be opened (turned off) or closed (turned on) depending on the position of the switch. When the switch is opened, the circuit is broken, and no current flows. When the switch is closed, the circuit is complete, and current can flow through the circuit.


Why does an open circuit does not make its elements function?

an opened circuit is considered to be possessed with an infinite resistance which totally opposes the flow of current in the circuit and ultimately makes the functioning of elements in the electric circuit subtle


Closed path where electric current can flow is called a?

What causes a electric current in a electric circuit?

Voltage causes current to flow in an electric circuit.


The pathway taken by an electric current is a?

The term is "circuit" (from the same root as circle) An electric circuit must be uninterrupted for the current to flow. (This is why circuit-breakers are also called circuit-interruptors.)


What is the history of the electric circuit?

the history of the electric circuit is that the person who made it his name is jack kilby but the history is that the electric circuit was one of the easiest way was to make the electric circuit when the electricity went out. THE END


How can you make the electric circuit?

Anything with a voltage power source, connecting wire and a load is an electric circuit. Hence if you have a flashlight you have an electric circuit.


Impedience of electric circuit?

The impedance of an electric circuit is the measure of the opposition presented by a circuit when the current and voltage is applied.


How can the flow of electric current be started and stopped?

Electric current can be started by closing a circuit, allowing the flow of electrons. This can be done by pressing a switch to complete the circuit. To stop the flow of electric current, the circuit needs to be opened, typically by opening the switch, which interrupts the flow of electrons.


How can you start and stop electric circuit?

You can start an electric circuit by closing the circuit, typically by turning a switch on. You can stop an electric circuit by opening the circuit, usually by turning a switch off or disconnecting a wire.


How does a electric circuit work?

When energy passes through a metal it creates an electric circuit.
