a) In which direction does conventional current flow around a circuit?
b) In which direction do electrons flow?

Academic Physics NCERT Class 6

a) Conventional current flows from positive to negative. It flows from the positive terminal of a battery to the negative terminal, through the outer circuit.

b) Electrons flow in the opposite direction of the conventional current. They flow from a negative terminal to a positive terminal of a battery.

Choose the statement which is not correct in the case of an electric fuse.$(a)$. Fuses are inserted in electric circuits of all buildings$(b)$. There is a maximum limit on the current which can safely flow through the electric circuits$(c)$. There is a minimum limit on the current which can safely flow in the electric circuits$(d)$. If a proper fuse is inserted in a circuit it will blow off if current exceeds the safe limit
