A circuit is defined as a completed path for voltage to flow from a source of
voltage through a load and back to the source.
T/F - ANSWER False
A complete circuit or path is often referred to as a(n) ? circuit.
a.closed
b.infinite
c.open
d.short - ANSWER a.closed
When current does not flow in a circuit, it is called a(n) ? circuit.
a.closed
b.infinite
c.open
d.short - ANSWER c.open
When a circuit is open, voltage does not exist in the circuit.
T/F - ANSWER False
When current finds an alternate path back to the source, rather than taking a path
through the load, it is called a(n) ? circuit.
a.closed
b.infinite
c.open
d.short - ANSWER d.short
A short circuit causes a drastic decrease in the ? of the circuit and could cause
