Choose The Correct Answer.
 
(i). Battery is a combination of:
a) Conductors   
b) Insulators   
c) Electric cells
d) Filaments
Answer- C
 
(ii). The basic electric circuit needs to have:
a) Only a source of electric current     
b) Only a few conducting wires
c) Only a device or appliance             
d) All the above
Answer- D
 
(iii). On passing current through an electric bulb, bulb starts emitting light because its:
a) Filament starts emitting light and then gets heated up
b) Thick connecting wires start emitting light and then get heated up
c) Filament gets heated up and then starts emitting light
d) Thick wires get heated up and then starts emitting light
Answer- C
 
Question 5- Very Short Answer Type Questions.
 
(i) What is electric cell?
Answer- Electric cell is a source of electric current.
 
(ii) What is electric current?
Answer- Electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge in a conductor.
 
(iii) What is electric circuit?
Answer- Electric circuit is an arrangement of battery, switch, electric device and conducting wires, which provides a complete path for electricity to pass.
 
 
Short Answer Type Questions.
 
(i) Tools like screw drivers and pliers used by electricians have handles made up of plastic, rubber, wood. Why?
Answer- Because plastic and rubber are insulators. So it protects the electrician from the shock of electricity.
 
(ii) Why should we dry our hands before touching an electric appliance or a switch?
Answer- Because normal water is conductor of electricity, so with wet hands we can get electric shock.
 
(iii) A student while performing an experiment in the science lab, connected an electric bulb to an electric cell through an electric switch. He noticed that the bulb does not glow when the electric switch was set in its ON position. Mention ant two reasons for this observation.
Answer- (1) Electric switch may be faulty, (2) Connections may be loose, (3) Electric cell may be used up.
 
(iv) Distinguish between the terms conductors and insulators of electricity. Give two examples of eachn type.
Answer-
Conductors                                                                                             Insulators
1. Conductors are materials through which                     1. Insulators are materials through which electric current cannot pass.
electric current can pass.                              
 
2. Examples: Metals- Iron, copper, aluminium etc.         2. Examples: All non-metals except graphite, rubber, plastic, wood etc.
 
(v) Explain why the bulb would not glow in the arrangement shown at below:
6th.sci.eng.Ch12.13 2
Answer- Bulb will not glow in the arrangement because the handle of the tester used in the connection is made of plastic which is an insulator.
 
(vi) Match the labels with the correct parts of the circuit given below:
6th.sci.eng.Ch12.13 3
 
 
Answer-
6th.sci.eng.Ch12.13 4
 
 
Long Answer Type Questions.
 
(i) Using the “conduction testes” on an object it was found that the bulb begins to glow. Is that object conductor or insulator? Explain.
Answer- That object is conductor, because conductors allow to pass electricity through it. So circuit gets completed and bulb glows.
 
(ii) The handles of the tools like screw drivers and pliers used by electricians for repair work usually have plastic or rubber covers on them. Can you explain why?
Answer- Because plastic and rubber are insulators. So it protects the electrician from the shock of electricity.
