What happens when an electric circuit is broken?
Then the current will stop flowing.
What is the part of a circuit that connects or disconnects the circuit?
Switches, fuses and circuit breakers are examples of some of the electrical parts which can connect or disconnect a circuit to a source of current. A diode does it for alternating current, but only for one half of each cycle. "Connecting" allows an electric current to flow through the circuit. "Disconnecting" stops an electric current from flowing through the circuit.
Difference in parallel and series circuits?
If two or more circuit components are connected end to end like a daisy chain, it is said they are connected in series. A series circuit is a single path for electric current through all of its components. Bulbs will get dimmer the further along the chain. If two or more circuit components are connected like the rungs of a ladder it is said they are connected in parallel. A parallel circuit is a different path for current through each of its components. A parallel circuit provides the same voltage across all its components and hence the same brightness of bulb.The voltage is the same in a parallel circuit while the voltage is shared in a series circuit.
How current electricity moves in a circuit?
You need a source of electrical potential difference, also known as voltage (which is the technical term for what for you call "electric pressure"). The easiest and most common voltage source is a household battery. Hook up the positive electrode of the battery using a conductor (eg. a copper wire) to one end of your circuit and the negative electrode to the other end, and voila, you'll have electric current flowing through your circuit.
Are no load and short circuit similar?
No. No load and short circuit is not similar. No load can be 1) Either open circuit i.e. Only Potential is available and load is not connected 2) Load (i.e. motor etc ) is connected but not working with full load or full capacity. In this case the current will flow through the circuit depending on the load. It means No load condition is a condition where no current or a small ( relative / comparative term) current is flowing through the circuit. In Short circuit the load side resistance/ impedance become so less that very high amount of current is passing through circuit.( The protection is therefor required for any circuit) No load and and short circuit is not similar.

In an electric circuit the ground prevents current from flowing in the circuit.?
false
What happens when an electric circuit is broken?
Then the current will stop flowing.
What will happen if part of the circuit is not properly connected?
Current stops flowing.
When electric current is flowing in a circuit if the voltage applied to the circuit is increased the?
Correct Answer= "the current will increase"
A break in the wires of an electric current will the circuit and the current?
A break in the wires of an electric current will break or cut the circuit and stop the current from flowing.
Is electricity kinetic energy?
Kinetic if power is flowing, Potential if power isn't flowing. If you have a circuit with a battery and a light and everything is connected (the light is on). That's kinectic since the electrons are flowing through the circuit. A battery with nothing connected to it is potential energy because the power is going anywhere.Kinetic because electricity or electrical energy is a flow of small particles called electrons.Static electricity is a form of potential energy, as it is not flowing.Therefore it can be either (just like mechanical energy).Electricity is not considered to be either kinetic or potential energy; it is its own category, electrical energy.it is not kinetic, and it can become potential if it is stored in a body, such as a battery.kineticKinetic energy is if power is flowing and potential energy is if power is not flowing.If there is a completed circuit and electrons are flowing throughout the circuit, the electric energy is kinetic energy.If there is a battery that is not connected to anything, the electric energy is potential energy.
What happens when an electric current is interupted?
When the circuit is interrupted, the current stops flowing.
What is a passive element in a circuit?
A passive element is an element of the electrical circuit that does not create power, like a capacitor, an inductance, a resistor or a memristor.
Is somthing that flows through an electric circuit an eletrical current?
Yes. Current consists of electrons flowing in a circuit.
An electric heating element is connected to a 110 V circuit and a current of 3.2 A is flowing through the element How much energy is used up during a period of 5 hours by the element?
If an electric heating element is connected to a 110 volt circuit and a current of 3.2 amp is flowing through the element, 63.36 million joules of energy is used up during a period of 5 hours. This is also 1.76 kilowatt-hours.110V times 3.2A equals 352 watts (joules per second).352 watts times 3600 seconds per hour times 5 hours equals 63,360,000 joules.
