MCQ
In general, metallic ropes are suspended on the carriers which take inflammable material. The reason is
  • A
    There speed is controlled
  • B
    To keep the centre of gravity of the carrier nearer to the earth
  • To keep the body of the carrier in contact with the earth
  • D
    Nothing should be placed under the carrier

Answer

Correct option: C.
To keep the body of the carrier in contact with the earth
c
(c) For providing path to charge induced on the surface of the carriers which take inflammable material.
