Answer:
The heating effect of electric current is used in the following applications: ... Electric iron: The element of electric iron is made of alloys having high melting point. Electric heater and geyser work on the same mechanism. Electric fuse: Electric fuse is used to protect the electric appliances from high voltage; if any.

Explanation:
Applications of heating effect of current
1)The Electric Bulb: The filament bulb is such that the inner core filament (mostly tungsten as it does not melt easily) is heated up to a certain temperature after which it is illuminated.
2)The Electric Iron: Bimetallic plates and applying the heating effect of current helps the iron break the flow of electricity when a certain temperature is reached. You may have noticed this when the red light on an iron box comes on and off.
3)Electric Heater: Similar to that of an iron box but here, a circuit breaker is used
4)The Electric Fuse: Copper or zinc can be used as the fuse element. When there is an excess of current flow through the electrical circuit, the heat generated increases as well and melts the fuse, thereby breaking the circuit.
