1) A and B are two devices. Both these devices have two terminals each. If the two terminals of
device A are connected directly by a wire, nothing happens but when the two terminals of device B
are connected by a wire directly, it gets damaged quickly. When the two terminals of device B are
connected to the terminals of device A, by copper wires, then part C of device A gets heated and
glows to produce light
i. a) What is the device A? _
b) What is the device B?
ii. Name the part C of device A.
iii. In which device, A or B, the two terminals are marked (+) and (-)?
