Question 6

Would the bulb glow after completing the circuit shown in Fig. if instead of safety pin we use an eraser?

Open in App
Solution

The bulb glows only if electric current passes through it. Eraser is an insulator, which does not allow electric current to pass through it. So if eraser is used instead of a safety pin, the circuit will not be closed. Hence, the bulb will not glow.
