A fuse is an electrical safety device which should not blow, which should overheat and melts if current is too high. Its placed in the live wire before the switch. This prevents overheating and catching fire. A fuse have a specific current value for example - 3000 amps. So when choosing a suitable fuse you must use the above minimum value but less than maximum value. For example in a circuit there is 1000W flowing, you should choose more than 1000 amps fuse not less or else, it will melt.

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

L=5H

f=60Hz

Required

The inductive reactance of the inductor

Step two:

Applying the expression

XL= 2πfL

substitute

XL=2*3.142*60*5

XL=1885.2 ohms
