19.
Electrical conductivity is the measure of a material's ability to conduct an electric current. It is commonly represented by the Greek letter σ(sigma). The S.I Unit of electrical conductivity is Siemens/meter(S/m).
20.
| S.No | Porollel circuit | Series circuit |
| 1. | Connected by branches | Single loop connection |
| 2. | Bulbs brighter | Bulbs dimmer |
| 3. | Each bulb fully powered | Bulbs share power |
| 4. | All bulbs stay glow if one goes out | All bulbs go out if one goes out |
21.
The flow of electric charges constitute an electric current. An electric current is measured by the amount of electric charge moving per unit time at any point in the circuit
22.
(i) Dry cells are normaly used in small devices such as remote control for T.V., torch, camera and toys.
A dry cells is a portable form of a leclanche cell. It consists of zinc vessel which acts as a negative electrode or anode the vessal contains a moist paste of saw dusts saturated with a solution of ammonium chloride and zinc chloride. The ammonium chloride acts as an electrolyte.
(ii) Electrolytes are substances that become ions in solution and acquire the capacity to conduct electricity.
(iii) The purpose of zinc chloride is to maintain the moistness of the paste being highly hygroscopic. The carbon rod covered with a brass cap is placed in the middle of vessel. It acts as positive electrode or cathode.
(iv) It is surrounded by a closely packed mixture of charcoal and manganese dioxide (MnO2) in a muslin bag. Here MnO2 acts as depolarizer. The zinc vessel is sealed at the top with pitch or shellac. A small hole is provided in it to allow the gases formed by the chemical action to escape. The chemical action inside the cell is the same as in leclanche cell
23.
i) When an electric current passes through a wire, the electrical energy is converted to hear. In heating appliances, the heating element is made up of materials with high melting point. An example of such a material is nichrome (an alloy of nickel, iron and chromium).
ii) The heating effect of current of electric current has many practical applications.
iii) The electric bulb, geyser, iron box, immersible water heater are based on this effect.
iv) These appliances have heating coils of high resistance.
Factors affecting Heating Effect of current
1) Electric Current
2) Resistance
3) Time for which current flows
Electric Fuse:
Electric fuse is a safety device which is used in household wiring and in many appliances. Electric fuse has a body made of ceramic and two points for connecting the fuse wire. The fuse wire melts whenever there is overload of the current in the wire. This breaks the circuit and helps in preventing damage to costly appliances and to the wiring. In electrical devices, a glass fuse is often used. This is a small glass tube, in which lies the fuse wire.
24.
Telephone:
In telephones, a changing magnetic effect causes a thin sheet of metal (diaphragm) to vibrate. The diaphragm is made of a metal that can be attracted to magnets.
1) The diaphragm is attached to spring that is fixed to the earpiece.
2) When a current flows through the wires, the soft - iron bar becomes an electromagnet.
3) The diaphragm becomes attracted to the electromagnet
4) As the person on the other end of the line speaks, his voice cause the current in the circuit to change. This causes the diaphragm in the earpiece to vibrate, producing sound.
25.
1) The electric cell produce weak energy.
2) The bulb filament is broken. (dead)
3) The both wires are connected to the same terminal of the cell.
4) Battery or cell is dead.
