B) Copper wire has melting point quite high and it will not melt easily
C) Copper wire melts easily due to overloading
D) Copper wire has high resistance and low melting point​

Answer 1

Answer:

B)

it has high melting point

please mark as brainliest

Answer 2

B) Copper wire has melting point quite high and it will not melt easily.

Explanation:

• Fuse wires are made very thin  which have a lower melting point and copper doesn't has the required melting point. Since the entire circuit is normally made of copper, there is no sense of making a fuse of copper.
• It may also cause flush-over at the fuse system. It will not be able to protect the electrical appliance from short circuits.
• When a strong electrical current passes through it, it won't melt easily and can hurt the electrical appliances.
• If the wire within the fuse (i.e. tungsten or nickrome) is substituted by dense copper (Cu) wire, it should melt inside and the glass may break. Since copper is unable to withstand high electrical power.
