AI Generated Solution

To analyze the given assertion and reason, we will break down the statements and evaluate their validity. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion (A)**: - The assertion states that "Safety fuses are made up of material having low melting point." - This statement is true. Safety fuses are designed to melt and break the circuit when excessive current flows through them. A low melting point ensures that the fuse will melt quickly under high current conditions, thereby protecting the circuit. ...
