प्रश्न
The figure given below shows the magnetic field around the conductor. Study it and answer the questions:

- What changes are caused by increasing current?
- What do you see when the magnetic needle is kept a little away from the wire?
- In the second part of the figure, the iron filings arrange themselves in a circular manner around the wire. Why does this happen?

उत्तर
- If the current through the wire is increased, the intensity of the magnetic field also increases.
- It starts deflecting less when the magnetic needle is kept away from the wire.
- The iron fillings get magnetised and arrange themselves in a circular manner around the wire.

Read the given passage and answer the following questions:
The home electrical connection consists of ‘live’, ‘neutral’ and ‘earth’ wires. The ‘live’ and the ‘neutral’ wires have potential difference of 220 V. The ‘earth’ is connected to ground. Due to a fault in the equipment or if the plastic coating on the ‘live’ and the ‘neutral’ wires gives a way the two wires come in contact with each other and a large current flows through it producing heat. If any inflammable material (such as wood, cloth, plastic, etc.) exists around that place it can catch fire. Therefore a fuse wire is used as a precautionary measure.

- Write the function of a fuse.
