Q. In short circuit, the value of electric current in a time circuit:
a) Increases very high
b) Do not change
c) Very low
d) Continuously changing
Correct Answer : a) Increases very high
Question from BPSC PT 71, 2025
Correct Answer: a) Increases very high
Explanation:
– A short circuit provides a path of (almost) zero resistance.
– By Ohm’s law, I = V/R. As R → 0, the current I becomes extremely large (theoretically infinite).
– In practice, it is limited by the source and wiring impedance, but it is still very high compared to normal operation.
