Will electricity flow through a circuit if the switch is off or open? Why or why not?

Answer 1

No, electricity will not flow through a circuit if the switch is off or open. When the switch is off or open, it creates a break in the circuit which prevents the flow of electricity from the power source to the load. This is because an open switch interrupts the continuous path that the current needs to take in order to flow through the circuit. The switch acts as a gatekeeper, controlling when the circuit is closed or open and allowing or stopping the flow of electricity accordingly.
