How does a torch work?
You’re answer is very close – check out the link below – this question has been answered before. Good luck A torch works by using a simple series circuit. The torch comprises a source of electricity (a battery), a switch, a lamp and conducting material (the body of the torch) to form the series circuit.. One terminal of the battery makes contact with the terminal on the base of the lamp. The other terminal of the battery makes contact with the conducting metal body of the torch. The metal body of the torch is connected via a switch to the cap of the lamp. When you close the switch the circuit is completed. The best way to answer your question is to take a torch to bits and try to follow the path of the current through the lamp. Ask your physics teacher if it is possible to carry out this investigation. Your teacher may have a torch in the laboratory that is used for this purpose. A practical investigation using a real torch is the best way of achieving a good understanding of how the t
