QQuestion
Which energy is transformed to which energy in an electric motor? Why in domestic circuits, electric bulbs, electric fans, refrigerators etc., are connected in parallel combination ? [1 + 2]
✓Answer
In an electric motor, electrical energy is transformed into mechanical energy.
Domestic Circuits Use Parallel Combination because
- Each appliance gets the same voltage, ensuring it works properly.
- If one appliance fails, others still work. This prevents disruptions.
- Each appliance has its own switch allowing for easy operation of each appliance.
