What is the difference in an open circuit and a short circuit?

an open circuit is a circuit that does not complete the circle. an open circuit does not do the job as the electricity stands still a short circuit is a circuit that wires have crossed and the electricity takes the shortest path. and does not complete all of the points on the circuit


Would a paper clip complete a circuit to make a light glow?

No, a paper clip is not a good conductor of electricity and may not be able to complete a circuit to make a light glow. It is recommended to use materials that are good conductors like metal wire for completing an electrical circuit.


What is the difference between parallel from circuit?

Parallel means 2 straight lines that never meet. You can continue drawing the lines forever and they do not cross. They can travel in any direction but they most be travelling the exact same way and have the same distance between them no matter what. A circuit, however is 1 closed line (similar to a circle) that has no beginning or end. It can be in any shape but it must be closed.


What is the name of a circuit which has only one loop of wire?

There are none. Electrons must flow from the source, through the circuit, and back to the source or they don't move. There are conductors other than wire, however. Best example is a car. You supply power to all the equipment in a car through wires and return the current through the car's frame. The word 'circuit' means circle and is used with electricity for this very reason.


Closed path where electric current can flow is called a?

I guess Electric Circuit....

What is symbol circuit?

A circuit symbol is a symbol that represents a component in a circuit. For example a light bulb is a circle with a cross in it.


A wire wrapped around a magnet is an example of a open circuit?

No, a wire wrapped around a magnet is an example of a closed circuit, as the wire forms a continuous loop for the flow of electric current. An open circuit is a circuit that is interrupted, preventing the flow of current.

How does closed circuit work?

A closed circuit works by having electricity flow in a complete circuit or circle or any closed shape.


In a circuit diagram what does a circle with a cross inside it represent?

In a circuit diagram, a circle with a cross inside it typically represents a battery or a cell. The cross indicates the positive terminal, while the surrounding circle represents the overall component. This symbol is commonly used to denote the source of electrical energy in a circuit.

How can you describe the shape of an electrical circuit?

It could be an oval or a circle.


Is the circle or straight line symbol on or off for an electrical switch?

Simply put, the straight line is the on, and the circle is the off. These symbols represent an electrical circuit. The Straight line represents a closed circuit, which means the switch is on and the electric current can travel through it, and the circle means and open circuit, where the current cannot travel because the circuit is open. A quick trick to remember: "O, Open, Off".


What does the circuit mean?

The act of moving or revolving around, or as in a circle or orbit; a revolution; as, the periodical circuit of the earth round the sun.
