    4. Indra does not have a night lamp in her room. She covered the bulb of her room with a towel
    in the night to get dim light. Has she taken the right step? Give one reason to justify your
    answer.

    6. Karthik made an electromagnet by winding 50 turns of wire over an iron screw. Vaibhav also
    made an electromagnet by winding 100 turns over a similar iron screw. Which electromagnet
    will attract more pins? Give reason.

    7. Raji took a wire of length 10 cm. Ravi 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 the figure. The current
    flowing in both the circuits is the same.

    1
    Will the heat produced in them be the same, if the wires taken by them are of equal lengths
    but of different thickness? Explain.

    8. When a switch is OFF


    (i) circuit starting from the positive terminal of the cell stops at the switch
    (ii) circuit is open
    (iii) current does not flow through it
    (iv) current flows after sometime
    Choose the combination of correct answer from the following.
    (a) All are correct (b) (ii) and (iii) are correct
    (c) Only (iv) is correct (d) (i) and (ii) are correct

    9. Assertion and Reason


    (a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
    (b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
    (c) A is true but R is false.
    (d) A is false but R is true.

    (i) Assertion (A): Fuse is a safety device which prevents damages to electrical circuits and
    possible fires.
    Reason (R): The fuse wire blows off and breaks the circuit and prevents fire and damage.
    ___________________________________________________________________

    (ii) Assertion (A): It is fatal to touch a live wire with bare feet and uncovered hands.
    Reason (R): The electric current passes through the body to the earth forming a circuit and
    burns the blood.
    _________________________________________________________________

    10. When an electric current flows through a copper wire AB as shown in the figure, the wire.

    (a) deflects a magnetic needle placed near it (b) becomes red hot
    (c) gives electric shock (d) behaves like a fuse
