उत्तर
In an electric circuit, a fuse is a safety device to prevent a possible fire.
Explanation:
A fuse is designed to protect an electrical circuit from overcurrent. It contains a wire that melts when the current exceeds a safe limit, breaking the circuit and preventing further current flow. This helps avoid overheating and reduces the risk of a fire.
