The most important safety method used for protecting home appliances from short circuiting or overloading is

  1. earthing.

  2. use of fuse.

  3. use of stabilizers.

  4. use of electric meter.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Answer is B

Fuses are safety devices that are to be built into our electrical system. If there were no fuses and we operated too many appliances on a single circuit, the cable carrying the power for that circuit would get extremely hot, short circuit, and possibly start a fire. To prevent electrical overloads, fuses are designed to trip or blow, stopping the flow of current to the overloaded cable.

Fuse is a piece of wire of a material with a very low melting point. When a high current flow through the circuit due to overloading or short circuit, the wires gets heated and melts. As a result, the circuit is broken and current stops flowing.

The fuse must always be connected to the mains and it must be of correct value. For example, a 15-ampere fuse should trip when the current through it exceeds 15 amperes. A 20-ampere fuse should blow when the current through it exceeds 20 amps.

Choose the best option:

Which of the following should not be included in a report?

  1. name of people affected by the event

  2. date of the event

  3. place of the event

  4. time of the event
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
The correct option is the one that should not be included in a report.
The date, place and time are all included in a report. Hence options B, C and D are wrong.
This leaves option A. It states that the name of people affected by the event should be included. But, the option is a bit vague. There must be several people, or hardly a couple. The names are not the focus of the report, but the event. Hence the factor relevant to the event - date, place, time are to be included, and not the names of people.
So, option A is the correct option.
