Which one of the following statements is not correct?

  • A.There is a minimum limit of current which can safely flow in the electric circuit.
  • B.There is a maximum limit of current which can safely flow in the electric circuit.
  • C.Fuses are inserted in electric circuits of all the buildings.
  • D.If the proper fuse is inserted in a circuit, it will blow off if the current is more than the safe limit.

Answer: A

The statement that is not correct is 'There is a minimum limit of current which can safely flow in the electric circuit.'

Every circuit has a maximum safe current. Above it the wires overheat and can cause a fire, which is why fuses are fitted in the electric circuits of all buildings: a fuse wire melts and breaks the circuit when the current exceeds the safe limit.

There is no minimum safe current: a smaller current is always safe, it simply does less work. So statements B, C and D are correct and A is the incorrect one.
