In charging the battery of a motor car, which of the following effect of electric current is used?
In charging the battery of a motor car, which of the following effect of electric current is used?
The correct option is C Chemical
Explanation for correct answers
In the case of battery charging of motor cars, the chemical effect of current comes into play. The source voltage must be higher than the battery voltage otherwise reversal flow of electrons will occur.
Explanation for incorrect answers
Heating - It occurs during the flow of electrons but it only leads to the loss of energy and has no purpose during the charging process.
Magnetic - Magnetic effect and electric charges go hand in hand , it helps in the development of eddy currents
Induction - It is developed by alternating electric currents due to which it changes the direction of magnetic field.
Hence, thus option (C) is correct, i.e. the chemical effect of electric current is used.
