What else can I help you with?
What position does the switch have to be in for a circuit to work?
The switch needs to be in the "on" position for the circuit to work, allowing the flow of electricity through the circuit. In the "off" position, the switch breaks the circuit, stopping the flow of electricity.
Why bulb does not work when fitted in a circuit with switch?
because you are switch the hot leg, so it can be turn on an off.
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.
Can series circuits work when a switch is open?
No. Since the switch is in series with the circuit, opening it blocks the current flow through the circuit, turning it off.
How does a circuit turn a switch on and off?
A switch makes a physical break in the electric circuit. With the circuit broken the electricity can not flow. When the switch is turned the other way the circuit is completed and the current/electricity can flow.
How does a lightswitch work?
A light switch fills(on) or makes (off) a gap in an electrical circuit.
Will a circuit work without a switch?
Yes, a circuit can work without a switch if it is designed to be always on or if the components are connected directly without the need for a switch to control the flow of current. However, in many applications, a switch is necessary to control when the circuit is on or off.
What does the on and off switch do on an electrical circuit?
The on and off switch controls the flow of electricity in the circuit. When the switch is on, it completes the circuit and allows electricity to flow through. When the switch is off, it breaks the circuit and stops the flow of electricity.
How does a switch work in a circuit to control the flow of electricity?
A switch in a circuit works by opening or closing a pathway for electricity to flow. When the switch is closed, it completes the circuit and allows electricity to flow through. When the switch is open, it breaks the circuit and stops the flow of electricity. This control of the flow of electricity allows the switch to turn devices on and off in a circuit.
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 does a switch do in a curcuit?
A switch can create a gap in a circuit causing the circuit to turn on or off!
What are you doing to the electrical circuit in your radio when you turn the radio on and off?
When you turn your radio on and off, you are simply flicking the switch in the circuit, the same as any circuit with a switch in it. When you turn it on, the switch completes the circuit, and current can flow around the circuit.
