Question

How does overloading and shot circuit occur in an electric circuit? Explain. What is the function of fuse during this situation?

Answer 1

Answer:

overload occur due to the high supply of current and generation of kinetic energy because the atoms in the material have some mass and velocity and as the formula suggest p.e

$pe = \frac{1}{2} \times mass \times velocity$

short circuit is the result of high current and

overload.the role of fuse is to break the circuit as it is made of poreclain or some quick heating material (hope this helps
