Explanation
Make and break arrangement causes striker to repeatedly hit the metal gong as long as switch is pressed. When Circuit is complete, electromagnet attracts the striker which hits metal gong. As soon as the striker moves, circuit breaks and electromagnet is inactive. Because of flexibility of striker, it moves back to its original position. As soon as it reaches original position, circuit is complete. This process repeats continuously.
