Actually the wire WILL get hot, but specifically HOW MUCH it gets hot depends on the current, and on the resistance of the wire.In most circuits, the resistance of the wire (and thus, the amount of heating) is insignificant, and can safely be ignored for most calculations.
An electric circuit needs to be a closed circuit in order for the current to continuously flow from the power source through the electrical components and back to the source. An open circuit, where there is a break in the circuit, would prevent the flow of electricity and disrupt the operation of the circuit.
Watts are the product of amps times volts. The amperage in a circuit is governed by the resistance of the load. A battery just supplies the potential as voltage, the load determines how much current is going to be drawn out of the battery. Batteries are rated in amp/hours. This means how long can a battery maintain a specific amperage over a period of time.
If a buzzer is connected to an open circuit, it will not receive any electrical current and will not produce any sound because the circuit is incomplete. In an open circuit, there is a break in the path, so the electric current cannot flow to power the buzzer.
yes 12 volt battery chargers are suitable for all automotive and marine 12 volt battery's never use the quick boost function on some chargers to charge a battery it is best to charge at a low setting over night should do ah is the amp hour rating of a battery the higher the rating the longer it can turn the starter for without going flat a battery charger to the best of my knowledge shouldn't have an amp hour rating so i don't know where you got this rating from
A circuit breaker switch could spark due to a buildup of heat or a high level of current flowing through it. This can lead to arcing between the contacts inside the breaker, resulting in sparking. Additionally, loose connections or damage to the breaker can also cause sparking.
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.
It would depend on the circuit diagram. In some cases, the circuit would be incomplete (simplest case is a battery with a wire attached to just one terminal).Parallel branches that have a connection to the battery without going through other branches are independent of each other. Say you have two parallel branches and a battery. If you short circuit one of the branches, the other branch will not be affected but the battery will be (current through the battery would decrease because taking out a parallel branch increases resistance).In short, it would depend on the circuit diagram. Note that for a nanosecond, there would be current in an open circuit, but after this brief time there would be no current flow in the segment of the circuit that has been shorted.
well first you going to divide 32 by 12 and get 2. 66 repeat amps.

Ignition switch going bad, corroded or loose battery cables, starter relay or starter going bad.
I have installed new battery and alternator. When i pull the fuse for the ignition off dray down fuse it doesnt go dead so it has to be a problem with the seet warmers, radio, heater fan as this is all that is on this draw down circuit. however have disconnected each individual circuits and it still goes dead after about 3 days.
A connection from a power source, through a load and a return back to the power source. <><><> An example: electricity is supplied to the light switch on the wall through an insulated copper wire, even though the switch is in the off position electricity is present. There is another insulated copper wire going to the light bulb. When you flip the switch the circuit is completed and the light bulb comes on.
Series CircuitWe say Resistances are in series if the same current flows through all Resistances. A circuit containing of only series resistances is called a series circuit. A series circuit is a circuit that has the same intensity of current flow through its elements.
try going out through the door at the hinges and fishing the wire through the fender to the engine compartment
An Ammeter provides a visual display of the magnitude of the current flowing through it. Ideally, the ammeter does nothing "in the circuit". You don't want your test equipment to change anything going on in the circuit you're measuring.
Electricity travels through a circut. A circut id domething that goes around, completeing a loop. Think of NASCAR. The cars are going around and around, doing laps around the track, which is a circut.
