What else can I help you with?
The flow of electric charges is called?
The flow of electric charges is current.
What can stop the flow of electric current in a series circuit?
In a series circuit, the flow of electric current can be stopped by breaking the circuit, which can occur if a switch is opened, a wire is cut, or a component fails, such as a blown fuse or burned-out light bulb. Since current must pass through each component in a series circuit, any interruption halts the entire flow. Additionally, adding a resistor with high resistance can also limit or stop the current flow.
Why electric current across a wire drops?
Electric current does not drop. Electric voltage, however, drops across a wire because the wire has non-zero resistance. (Do not confuse electric current with electric voltage - they are not the same.)The reason current does not drop is that, in a series circuit, according to Kirchoff's current law, the current at every point in a series circuit is the same.
What allows the current to enter the electronromagnet in an electric motor?
The resistor allows current to enter the electromagnet in an electric motor. The resistor regulates the amount of current that enters the electric motor.
What device uses motion in an electric field to produce an electric current?
electric genarator
Can a magnet stop an electric current?
A magnet cannot stop an electric current, but it can influence the flow of the current. Moving a magnet near a wire carrying an electric current can induce a voltage in the wire, which can affect the behavior of the current.
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.
How do you start and stop the flow of electric current?
with a switch.
Can rubber be used to stop electric current?
yes
What happens when an electric circuit is broken?
Then the current will stop flowing.
What insulators stop electrical current?
Not really, insulators simply cannot support the passage of an electric current.
How can you stop electric bell ringing - nobody pressing it?
You can stop an electric bell from ringing by disconnecting it from the power source or by removing its batteries, if applicable. This will interrupt the electrical current and stop the bell from ringing.
What could stop the flow if there is too much electric current?
circuit breaker or fuse
What is the ability of a substance to oppose or slow down electric current?
Insulators typically slow the movement of electrons through an electric current. Bad conductors, such as rubber, can be used to slow, stop, and/or redirect electric current.CommentInsulators do not 'slow down', 'stop', or 'redirect' current! Simply put, insulators don't have enough charge carriers to support conduction.
Does an electric current move a short distance and then stop?
No, an electric current flows continuously in a closed circuit. The movement of charges (usually electrons) through the conductor allows the flow of current to persist until the circuit is broken.
What is a complete electric ciruit?
A complete electric circuit is a closed loop through which an electric current can flow. It consists of a power source, such as a battery, wires to carry the current, and a load, such as a light bulb or motor, that operates using the current. If any part of the circuit is broken, the flow of electricity will stop.
What is the ability to slow down or stop the flow of an electric current?
The ability to slow down or stop the flow of an electric current is called resistance. This property is measured in ohms and is often used in electronic components like resistors to control the flow of electricity. Increasing resistance reduces the current flow, while decreasing resistance allows more current to pass through.
