| Dec 22, 2016 at 3:03 | comment | added | wbeaty | The classic example is any charged capacitor. Capacitors can have a voltage across their terminals, but this happens at zero current. (Avoid thinking that currents have a voltage. That's a classic newbie error.) Voltage is actually it's own thing. Voltage the "Electro" part of Electro-magnetism. Think like this: inductors "store current" like a flywheel, while capacitors "store voltage" like a compressed spring. Or this: EM energy-flows can only exist if both voltage and current are present. | |

When the switch is open (not connected) there is zero current through the switch and there is 9V voltage across the switch. | |
