What else can I help you with?
What is a condition that provides an undesired path for electrical current?
The condition you are looking for is a short circuit.
What is a curcuit?
A circuit is the path that transmits electric current.A circuit includes a battery or a generator that gives energy to the charged particles .Circuits are classified according to the type of current they carry that is parallel circuit and series circuit.
What materials are conductors in a torch?
The conducting path of a torch is a simple circuit: Battery to switch, switch to bulb, bulb back to battery. Provided the switch is on, and there are no breaks in the circuit wiring (and the bulb is good), the torch should work.
What circuit is a circuit in which electrical current has more than one path to follow?
A circuit that has more than one path for the current to flow is a parallel circuit. The circuit must have two or more paths to be considered parallel. A circuit that has only one current path through multiple components is a series circuit.
Why does electrical current flow along a single path in a series circuit and more than one path in a parallel circuit?
Because there is only a single path in series circuit and many paths in parallel circuit.
Why does a circuit stop working when you remove the battery?
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 part of the vehicle provides this return path to the battery?
The Vehicles frame unless fiberglass then the chassis.
What does the neutral wire do in an electrical circuit?
The neutral wire in an electrical circuit provides a return path for the current to flow back to the power source. It helps balance the electrical load and ensures the safety of the circuit by providing a path for excess current to return to the source.
What is the earth wire inside a plug for?
This wire provides a low impedance return path to the distribution panel in case of a circuit fault. This direct fault current path will trip the circuit's breaker and open the circuit.
What is an electric circuit that provides an uninterrupted path for a current to flow?
A closed circuit is one that provides an uninterrupted path for a current to flow. This means that the circuit is complete, allowing electricity to travel from the source (like a battery) through the wires to the load (such as a light bulb) and back to the source. If the circuit is open or broken, the current will not flow.
The return path for the battery on a car is called what?
The ground.
What is a device that move electrons along a path often a battery?
A device that moves electrons along a path is called a circuit. In a circuit, electrons flow from the negative terminal of a battery, through the components in the circuit, and back to the positive terminal of the battery, creating electrical energy.
What is positive and negative on the symbol for a battery on a circuit board?
In a battery symbol on a circuit board, the positive terminal is typically represented by a longer line, while the negative terminal is shown as a shorter line. The positive terminal is where the current flows out to the circuit, providing power, while the negative terminal serves as the return path for the current. Correctly identifying these terminals is crucial, as reversing them can damage the circuit or the battery itself.
What is a series circuit.?
provides just one path for current flow
How would you describe the path electrons take in a simple flashlight circuit?
In a simple flashlight circuit, electrons flow from the negative terminal of the battery, through the circuit (which typically includes a switch and light bulb), and return to the positive terminal of the battery. This flow of electrons creates a current that powers the light bulb and produces light.
Does the grounded conductor have normal circit current flow?
Yes, the grounded conductor carries normal circuit current flow in a typical electrical system. It provides a return path for current back to the source, completing the circuit.
What is used to complete a circuit?
Source which is the battery Object which is the switch Path which is the wire
