An electric cell produces electricity from the __________ ___________ in it.
Your teacher has shown you the following activity.
Activity: The teacher has wound a long insulated piece of wire around an iron nail in the form of a coil. The free ends of the wire are connected to a cell through a switch as shown in Figure 14.3. The current is switched on and some pins are placed near the ends of the nail.
Write down any three questions that come to your mind about this activity
Paheli took a wire of length of 10 cm. Boojho took a wire of 5 cm of the same material and thickness. Both of them connected the wires as shown in the circuit given in Figure 14.4. The current flowing in both circuits is the same.
(i) Will the heat produced in both cases be equal? Explain
(ii) Will the heat produced be the same if the wires taken by them are of equal lengths but of different thicknesses? Explain.

In a set up the students coated iron nails with zinc metal and noted that, iron nails coated with zinc prevents rusting. They also observed that zinc initially acts as a physical barrier, but an extra advantage of using zinc is that it continues to prevent rusting even if the layer of zinc is damaged. Name this process of rust prevention and give any two other methods to prevent rusting.
