Question
Choose the statement which is not correct in the case of an electric fuse.
Options
Fuses are inserted in electric circuits of all buildings
There is a maximum limit on the current that can safely flow through the electric circuits.
There is a minimum limit on the current that can safely flow in the electric circuits.
If a proper fuse is inserted in a circuit it will blow off if the current exceeds the safe limit.
Solution
There is a minimum limit on the current that can safely flow in the electric circuits.

Set up the circuit shown in Figure again. Move the key to ‘ON’ position and watch carefully in which direction the compass needle gets deflected. Switch ‘OFF’ the current. Now keeping rest of the circuit intact, reverse the connections at the terminal of the cell. Again switch ‘on’ the current. Note the direction in which the needle gets deflected. Think of an explanation.
