Answers Key:

True or False

5 x 1 = 5

(b)
False

(b)
False

(b)
False

(b)
False

(a)
False

Generic 2

5 x 2 = 10

The two insulators are:
(i) Plastic (ii) Rubber
The two conductors are:
(i) Aluminium (ii) Copper

Some devices which make use of the electric cells are:
(i) Transistor radio, (ii) Camera, (iii) Wrist watch, (iv)Alarm clock.

Materials used in the electric circuit should be good conductors of electricity that allow electricity to pass through them such as metals (aluminium, copper, iron, etc).

To avoid electric shocks, we should use plastic gloves for operating electrical devices.

10.

A fused bulb does not glow because in a fused bulb, the filament of bulb burns up and connection is broken or incomplete, so the current cannot flow.

Generic 3

2 x 3 = 6

11.

The cell consists of a carbon rod present of the centre of the zinc container. By the side, metal cup present is positive terminal and opposite to that is a metal disc which is of negative terminal.

12.

As in the given circuit diagram, it seems that the switch is open, i.e. there is an air gap between the connecting wire, so the circuit is not complete and the bulb will not glow.

Generic 5

3 x 5 = 15

13.

An electric cell consists of a cylindrical pot which is covered by a thick paper sheet.

It consists of two terminals. One is called positive terminal and the other is called negative terminal. The metal cap is the positive terminal and the metal disc is the negative terminal of the electric cell.
The production of electric current takes place due to the chemical reactions inside the cell. The chemicals are present between the outermost covering of the cell and carbon rod.

14.

An electric torch is a device which is used as a lamp. It has two or more than two cells, a bulb and a switch.

So, when we slide the switch of electric torch, circuit becomes complete and bulb starts glowing, while on sliding switch back, circuit gets broken and bulb goes OFF.

15.

(a) The direction of current will be from Q to P in A and direction of current will be from P to Q in B. Because direction of current is always from positive terminal to negative terminal of the cell or battery.
(b) Yes, the bulb will glow in both the cases because to glow the bulb, we just need to complete the circuit.
(c) No, the brightness of the bulb never depend upon the direction of current passing through it.
