Latest FAQs

What happens if a fuse blows in a circuit?2024-11-13T15:34:35+05:30

If a fuse blows, it breaks the circuit and stops the flow of current, protecting the appliances and preventing overheating or fire hazards. The fuse must be replaced to restore the connection.

Why is the electricity supplied to our homes AC and not DC?2024-11-13T15:34:21+05:30

Alternating current (AC) is used for domestic supply because it is more efficient for transmitting electricity over long distances. AC can be easily transformed to different voltage levels, which reduces energy losses in transmission.

What is the difference between a fuse and an MCB?2024-11-13T15:34:05+05:30

A fuse is a one-time safety device that melts and breaks the circuit if excess current flows. An MCB (Miniature Circuit Breaker) automatically trips during overload or short circuits but can be reset after the fault is corrected.

What is the function of the earth wire in domestic circuits?2024-11-13T15:33:48+05:30

The earth wire provides a low-resistance path for leakage currents to flow into the ground. It protects users from electric shocks by safely directing excess current away from the appliance in case of a fault.

Why are appliances connected in parallel in domestic circuits?2024-11-13T15:32:42+05:30

Appliances are connected in parallel in domestic circuits to ensure that each receives the same voltage and operates independently. This setup also allows individual control of devices, so if one appliance fails, the others continue to function.

How does the current affect the force on a conductor in a magnetic field?2024-11-13T15:26:15+05:30

The force on a conductor in a magnetic field is directly proportional to the current flowing through the conductor. If the current increases, the force also increases.

What happens when a current-carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field?2024-11-13T15:18:07+05:30

When a current-carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, it experiences a force. The direction of this force is perpendicular to both the current and the magnetic field, and its magnitude depends on the current, the magnetic field strength, and the length of the conductor.

What is a solenoid, and how does it create a magnetic field?2024-11-13T15:11:27+05:30

A solenoid is a long coil of wire with multiple turns. When current flows through the solenoid, it creates a strong and uniform magnetic field inside. A solenoid with an iron core can act as an electromagnet, which is used in various devices.

How does the number of turns in a circular loop affect the magnetic field?2024-11-13T15:11:09+05:30

The strength of the magnetic field inside a circular loop increases with the number of turns. More turns create a stronger magnetic field at the center of the loop.

What is the effect of increasing the current on the magnetic field?2024-11-13T15:10:53+05:30

Increasing the current increases the strength of the magnetic field around the conductor. The magnetic field strength is directly proportional to the current.

How does the magnetic field strength change with distance from the conductor?2024-11-13T15:10:36+05:30
  • The magnetic field strength decreases as the distance from the conductor increases. The field is strongest near the conductor and becomes weaker as you move farther away.
What is the shape of the magnetic field lines around a current-carrying conductor?2024-11-13T15:09:14+05:30

The magnetic field lines around a straight current-carrying conductor form concentric circles around the wire. The direction of the magnetic field can be determined using the right-hand thumb rule.

What is the direction of magnetic field lines around a bar magnet?2024-11-13T14:28:17+05:30

Around a bar magnet, magnetic field lines emerge from the north pole, curve around the magnet, and enter the south pole. Inside the magnet, the lines continue from the south pole to the north pole, forming closed loops.

How can you visualize magnetic field lines?2024-11-13T14:28:00+05:30

You can visualize magnetic field lines by sprinkling iron filings around a magnet or by using a small compass. The iron filings align themselves along the magnetic field lines, forming a pattern that reveals the field’s shape and direction.

What are magnetic field lines?2024-11-13T14:27:04+05:30

Magnetic field lines are imaginary lines used to represent the strength and direction of a magnetic field. They help us visualize how the magnetic force behaves around a magnet or a current-carrying conductor.

What is the purpose of an electric fuse in a domestic circuit?2024-11-13T14:01:14+05:30

An electric fuse protects appliances from damage by breaking the circuit if excessive current flows, preventing overheating and potential fires.

What is Fleming’s Left-Hand Rule, and where is it applied?2024-11-13T14:00:56+05:30

Fleming’s Left-Hand Rule is used to find the direction of force on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field. It’s applied in electric motors to understand the direction of motion.

What are the applications of electromagnetic induction?2024-11-13T14:00:41+05:30

Electromagnetic induction is used in devices like electric generators, transformers, and in technologies like magnetic levitation for high-speed trains (Maglev).

What is electromagnetic induction, and who discovered it?2024-11-13T14:00:18+05:30

Electromagnetic induction is the process by which a changing magnetic field induces a current in a conductor. Michael Faraday discovered this phenomenon.

How does the number of turns in a solenoid affect the magnetic field strength?2024-11-13T14:00:00+05:30

The magnetic field strength inside a solenoid increases as the number of turns increases, as each turn reinforces the magnetic field at the center of the solenoid.
