The following question based on electric current and magnetism topic of general science mcq

Questions : What should be the characteristic of fuse wire?

(a) Low melting point, low specific resistance

(b) High melting point, low specific resistance

(c) High melting point, high specific resistance

(d) Low melting point, high specific resistance

The correct answers to the above question in:

Answer: (d)

Fuse wire should be such that it melts immediatley when strong current flows through the circuit. The same is possible if its melting point is low and resistivity is high.

a) That works on the principle described by Fleming’s left hand rule

b) That converts electrical energy to mechanical energy

c) Both (a) and (b)

d) Neither (a) nor (b)

Answer: (c)

An electric motor is a device that converts electrical energy to mechanical energy.

Question : 6

Consider the following statements :

  1. An ammeter is always connected in series in the circuit.
  2. A voltmeter can only be connected in series in the circuit.
  3. A voltmeter has low resistance.
Which of these statements) is/are correct?

a) 1 only

b) 1 and 2

c) 2 and 3

d) 3 only

Answer: (a)

If you connected a voltmeter in series all you are doing is measuring the difference in potential across a strand of wire which will be zero (or very near).

To measure voltage you connect the voltmeter in parallel so that you measure the voltage from the – to the + or the voltage drop across a load.

For a voltmeter the higher the resistance the more accurate it is.
