Question

When we turn the switch to the “off” position the circuit becomes

  1. Closed
  2. Open
  3. Negative
  4. Positive

hintHint:

When a switch is in the 'off', it blocks the electricity flow and the circuit becomes an open circuit.

The correct answer is: Open


    When we turn the switch to the “off” position the circuit becomes open.
    • The current flow occurs in a closed circuit and not in an open circuit.
    • When the switch is off in a circuit, the current flow will get interrupted.
    • Thus, when a switch is in the 'off' position, it blocks the electricity flow from entering the main electric circuit and the circuit becomes open.
