1. During a short-circuit condition, what happens to the current flowing in the circuit?

It drops to zero

It stays constant

It increases substantially

It changes randomly and unpredictably

A short circuit drastically lowers a circuit’s resistance, and since current equals voltage divided by resistance, current surges dramatically as a result.
