Which of the following materials is used as a fuse wire?
A. Aluminium
B. Silver
C. Copper
D. Tin-lead alloy
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Fuse wire made of alloy of tin and lead (or copper with low melting point). It has low melting point and high resistance. Copper has high melting point, not suitable for fuse. Silver expensive. Aluminium not typical.
Explanation:
Michael Faraday discovered electromagnetic induction. He showed that moving a magnet through a coil of wire, or changing the magnetic flux in one coil near another, induces an electrical current. Lenz's law later described the direction of that induced current. Maxwell formulated the classical theory of electromagnetic radiation.
