The voltage drop is equal to the total resistance across which it is dropped multiplied by the current flowing through this resistance.
i.e. V=IR (where V is the voltage drop, I is the current and R is the resistance)
Thus, I=V/R
So I=5/1000 A = 5*10-3 A = 5 mA
So the current flowing through your circuit is 5mA. Note that this answer is theoretical, and that it may differ from what you observe in practice due to component tolerances (resistors with the gold band at the end are only accurate to within 10%).
Yes, an open switch breaks the circuit and prevents electricity flowing through. A closed switch on the other hand completes the circuit and in turn helps electricity travel through the circuit.
Yes, as long as the unbroken path is a good conductor of electricity.
A circuit that is complete and unbroken with flowing electric current normally has steady supply of voltage with no broken links. Electrical energy flows to light up a bulb or do similar work. Its status is complete, nothing else is needed.
An electromagnet if formed by pushing current through a coil. If the circuit is truly open, current will cease to flow, thus no electromagnet.
An electric circuit.
closed circuit
Rephrase your question so that it makes sense! <<>> The current through the switch before being closed is zero. The current in the circuit does not start flowing until the circuit's switch is closed.
A closed circuit is one where the current is flowing continuously from the source to the load and back to the source, completing a loop. An open circuit, on the other hand, is one where the current cannot flow because the circuit is broken at some point.
Yes, there is a current flow through he return wire in a closed circuit. The only time there is no current flow through the return wire is when the circuit is open.
A closed path through which a current can flow is called a circuit. Electric Circuit:)
Yes, in a closed circuit, the current is constant and flows continuously through the circuit.
Closed circuit means circuit is complete without any break in between and current is flowing if there is any source.
A closed circuit would look like a circuit which has no disconnected wire and when the current is flowing continuously
When a circuit is closed, meaning there is a complete path for the electric current to flow, the current will flow from the positive terminal of the voltage source through the circuit components and back to the negative terminal. This flow of current allows electrical energy to be transferred and work to be done in the circuit.
Yes, an open switch breaks the circuit and prevents electricity flowing through. A closed switch on the other hand completes the circuit and in turn helps electricity travel through the circuit.

Switches control the flow of electric current in a circuit. In an open circuit, the switch is off, interrupting the flow of current. When the switch is closed in a closed circuit, it allows the current to flow continuously through the circuit.
