The battery is the power source of the circuit. It supplies current to the circuit and the circuit is simply a path for the current to follow. When you remove the current (battery), the path still exists but there is no current going through it.

What will happen to the metal filament when the bulb blew in a circuit?
It might stop working. (Also known as fused) We can no longer use it as when one part of a system broke,the whole system will stop functioning. You might need a new bulb if that happens. Ohh and make sure you don't breathe in to much inert gas from the battery if it has melted! Just a fact. . .
Why do things stop working when you switch them off?
Electricity only works when it can flow all the way around a loop called a circuit. Turning off a switch breaks the circuit, stopping the flow and turning electrical things off. Turning a switch on joins the circuit and makes them work again.
What causes electrical current to fail?
If you open part of the circuit (for example, with a switch), the current will stop flowing. Also, if there is no voltage driving the current (for example, if a battery runs empty), no current will flow.
How is in insulator used in a circuit?
They stop the power
When a circuit is open do electrons go backwards or do they just stop?
They just stop.
What cause the keyless remote to stop working?
Dead battery. Broken solder joints. Limited to NO contact with remote buttons to circuit board.
Will the printed circuit stop all gauges from working?
Depending which circuit burned out, yes.
What are the advantage to a parallel circuit?
If one wire was to break only one of the bulbs on the circuit would stop working whereas if one wire broke on a series circuit all the bulbs would stop working.
Your phone is getting hot and your battery is running down fast What is wrong?
Sounds like an electrical short or a battery failiure, which can mean a new battery ,a new phone, or that somthing is shorting the length of the circuit .remove the battery immediately since they can explode in rare instances.First try another battery, if the problem is still there then its either a phone short circuit or an obstruction short circuit which would either require cleaning or rewiring.Hope this help :)
Why battery is removed first to change SIM card?
Because if not, you could remove the SIM without shutting down the phone, which can make it stop working. I managed to remove the SIM from an older Sagem phone without removing the battery and the phone just blocked. I had to remove the battery insert the SIM and put the battery back in order to restart it.
Why does the door bell stop working?
the battery dies.
If a circuit had a gap in it would it work?
Nope... if the circuit has a gap in it - the path of electrons is interrupted, and that would stop the circuit from working.
Why does the PlayStation 3 wireless controllers stop working when the battery fails to take a charge?
The Playstation 3 wireless controllers stop working when the battery fails to take a charge because they operate on a charged battery.
What happens to a circuit when you turn off a flashlight?
The circuit will stop working once turn off a flashlight.
What will happen to phone when you charge it with over voltage?
the battery will stop working.
What will happen if the connecting wire of a circuit breaks down while device is working?
There will be sparks and the device will stop working
Wii remote not working?
If its on a charging console with the rechargeable battery it is probably overcharged if its battery is a normal battery then go to a game stop and get somebody to check it
