Question Number 36529 by rahul 19 last updated on 03/Jun/18
A fuse with a circular cross−sectional  radius of 0.15 mm blows at 15A. What  should be the radius of the cross section  of a fuse made of same material that  blows at 30A?
$$\mathrm{A}\:\mathrm{fuse}\:\mathrm{with}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{circular}\:\mathrm{cross}−\mathrm{sectional} \\ $$$$\mathrm{radius}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{15}\:\mathrm{mm}\:\mathrm{blows}\:\mathrm{at}\:\mathrm{15A}.\:\mathrm{What} \\ $$$$\mathrm{should}\:\mathrm{be}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{radius}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{cross}\:\mathrm{section} \\ $$$$\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{fuse}\:\mathrm{made}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{same}\:\mathrm{material}\:\mathrm{that} \\ $$$$\mathrm{blows}\:\mathrm{at}\:\mathrm{30A}? \\ $$

More area more current required  ((Πr_1 ^2 )/(Πr_2 ^2 ))=(I_1 /I_2 )  r_2 ^2 =((r_1 ^2 ×I_2 )/I_1 )=((0.15×0.15×30)/(15))  r_2 =0.15×(√2)
$${More}\:{area}\:{more}\:{current}\:{required} \\ $$$$\frac{\Pi{r}_{\mathrm{1}} ^{\mathrm{2}} }{\Pi{r}_{\mathrm{2}} ^{\mathrm{2}} }=\frac{{I}_{\mathrm{1}} }{{I}_{\mathrm{2}} } \\ $$$${r}_{\mathrm{2}} ^{\mathrm{2}} =\frac{{r}_{\mathrm{1}} ^{\mathrm{2}} ×{I}_{\mathrm{2}} }{{I}_{\mathrm{1}} }=\frac{\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{15}×\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{15}×\mathrm{30}}{\mathrm{15}} \\ $$$${r}_{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{15}×\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\: \\ $$

radius=(√(((.15×.15×30)/(15)) ))=.15×(√(2 )) mm  pls. check ans
$${radius}=\sqrt{\frac{.\mathrm{15}×.\mathrm{15}×\mathrm{30}}{\mathrm{15}}\:}=.\mathrm{15}×\sqrt{\mathrm{2}\:}\:{mm} \\ $$$${pls}.\:{check}\:{ans} \\ $$

Correct!  Thanks sir.
$$\mathrm{Correct}! \\ $$$$\mathrm{Thanks}\:\mathrm{sir}. \\ $$
