Fill in the following blank with suitable words:
The magnetic effect of a coil can be increased by increasing the number of ........... increasing the ........... or inserting an ........... core.
Fill in the following blank with suitable words:
If a coil is viewed from one end, and the current flows in a clockwise direction, then this end is a ........... pole.
For the coil in the diagram below, when the switch is pressed:
(a) what is the polarity of end A?
(b) which way will the compass point then?

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.
- Name the two wires having potential difference of 220 V.
- What is a short circuit?
- Write the function of a fuse.
