This just popped into my head and I realized... I have no clue whot the answer is. Not even remotely. I know the basic concepts of electronics and circuits and so on, but... yeah.
Let's say yeu have a circuit, nice simple circular one, electrons going around it along the path.
Then yeu break the circuit, cut a hole in it.
...How come the flow STOPS instead of falling out of the loop?
Srsly. The electrons somehow just 'know' that there's a gap now, despite that they haven't physically been to the gap to know this. Everything just STOPS.
They're not physically pushing each other through the circuit, and whot's more odd, is as soon as yeu reconnect it, they return to their standard flow, despite that there's nothing pushing them in either direction forcing them to do so.
How is it possible for this to occur
