How does an electrical circuit work?

Answer 1

In electron flow when you complete a circuit (supply power to a finished circuit) electrons will flow form the negative pole back to the positive pole of the battery. Depending on what you have between the two poles (resistors, capicitors, diodes, parrallel circuits, loads or so what) the electrons will act differently. The Important thing to remember about circuits is..how ever many electrons leave the negative pole...should return back to the positive pole. Meaning however much voltage you have at your negative pole..no matter what the load is or how big it is...you should have the same voltage on the positive pole.

Answer 2

The electrical circuit provides a relatively low resistance to flow of electrons from the +ve to the -ve pole of a battery or a generator (even in AC circuits, the polarity is present but keeps alternating at 50 or 60 cycles per second). Without a circuit also, leakage takes place through the air, where a few ions are always present. That is why a battery gets discharged slowly if left in air (humid air is more conductive than dry air).

Electrical circuits may be passive (only resistive load is present, ignoring the inductance of the wires), or active (containing inductors and capacitors), DC or AC. Circuit analysis can be simple or very complicated depending upon the circuit.

Answer 3

by having everything in place and close the circuit and if the resistor is high it is done rightIn electron flow when you complete a circuit (supply power to a finished circuit) electrons will flow form the negative pole back to the positive pole of the battery.

Answer 4

Electrical circuit delivers energy from the energy source like batteries into the energy receiver like LED or whatever you want to use the energy for. The resistor, capacitor, and etc on the circuit itself help to conduct the energy flow. How? (You should read it somewhere else)
What the battery charges do is they send the same charge of electron (negative) to the next electron that is connected to the source's link, like a cable. In addition, the cable conduct the electric charge to the other end of the cable, sending it to the receiver energy (and of course prior to the energy receiver, that's where capacitor, resistor, etc take place: functioning in such way that it causes the electrical charges to move differently (faster or slower) but in the same direction)
