the electrons are not allowed to enter into the circuit.
Closing a switch makes a closed circuit Opening a switch opens, or breaks the circuit
what does closed switch mean
Charges leave the dry cell. Charges move through the switch. Charges move from the switch to the light. Charges move through the light bulb. Charges move through the wire leading back to the dry cell.
When the switch is closed in a simple circuit, the negative charges (electrons) flow from the negative terminal of the battery through the circuit and back to the positive terminal. This flow of electrons creates an electric current that powers the circuit components.
A switch in circuit symbols is represented by a break in the line with a gap or by a line that can be closed to complete the circuit. It typically looks like a gap that can be closed or opened to control the flow of electrical current in a circuit.
Closing a switch makes a closed circuit Opening a switch opens, or breaks the circuit
At a switch, the electric current can be opened (turned off) or closed (turned on) depending on the position of the switch. When the switch is opened, the circuit is broken, and no current flows. When the switch is closed, the circuit is complete, and current can flow through the circuit.
When the switch is opened, the charge will drop to zero.

There is a complete path for the electricity to flow. The opposite of an open circuit. If a light switch is on and the light comes on, the circuit is closed. If the switch is turned off, the light goes off because the circuit is open.
Complete circuit.

*Look at the simple circuit illustrated in Figure A-2. What will happen when only switch S1 is closed? Correct Answer= "Nothing will happen-the light bulb won't light up." <<>> If there is a load in the circuit the load will operate. If there is no load in the circuit and it is complete then a short circuit will occur and something in the circuit will burn open. If the circuit is complete and there is a fuse or breaker in the circuit, then the fuse or breaker will open the circuit.
If the switch is what is keeping the load from turning on, then yes, there is a voltage across the open switch.
