At the time of short circuit,the electric current in the circuit (a)varies continuously (b) reduces substantially (c) does not change _(d) increases heavily Assertion-Reasoning MCQs--you have to select one of the codes (a),(b),(c),and(d) (a)_Both A and R are true & R is the correct explanation of A (b) Both A &R are true & R is not the correct explanation of A (c) Ais true,but R is false. (d) A is false,but R is true.6. Assertion-At high temperature, metal wires have a greater chance of short circuiting Reason-Both resistance and resistivity of a material vary with temperature 7. Assertion-Incandescent bulb passes an electric current through a metal filament to produce hear. Reason- The higher the wattage,the more energy is consumed . 8. Assertion-Heater wire must have high resistance and high melting point. Reason- if resistance is high,the electric conductivity will be less. Short Answer Type Questions 9.
