An electromagnet if formed by pushing current through a coil. If the circuit is truly open, current will cease to flow, thus no electromagnet.

Why does the contacts in a electromagnet come together when switch is Closed?

When the switch of an electromagnet is closed, it completes the circuit and allows current to flow through the coil, creating a magnetic field. This magnetic field attracts the contacts, causing them to come together and close the circuit, which allows a continuous flow of current.

How does a circuit breaker use an electromagnet?

The electromagnet in the circuit breaker is used for instantaneous tripping if short-circuit condition arises. At defined current level the electromagnet develops the force high enough to cause the tripping of the mechanism.


What happens to an electric current when a circuit is closed?

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.
