उत्तर
Closing the switch completes the circuit.
Explanation:
When you close the switch in a simple circuit:
- It completes the path for the electric current to flow.
- The electric current flows from the power source (like a battery), through the wires, the switch, and the bulb.
- The filament in the bulb heats up due to the flow of current, and as a result, the bulb glows.
