Science Question on Domestic Electric Circuits
At the time of short circuit, the current in the circuit
A
reduces substantially.
B
does not change.
C
increases heavily.
D
vary continuously.
Answer
increases heavily.
Explanation
Solution
When two naked wires of an electric circuit touch each other, the amount of current that is flowing in the circuit increases abruptly. This causes short-circuit.
