An electric heater of resistance 230 ohm is connected to 230 volt supply calculate the heat energy produced by it in one second |
|
Answer» Answer: Given:Resistance of the electric heater = 230 ohms = R • VOLTAGE or the potential difference = 230 volts = V Time = 1 second = t To FIND : Heat energy produced by the heater in 1 second Heat energy = Vxlxt Using ohms law : V=IxR 230=1x230 | = 1 ampere The CURRENT passing through the heater is 1 ampere Now using the formula: Heat = 230x1x1 Heat = 230 Joules The heat energy produced is equal to 230 joules Note:this can also be FOUND with the formula 1²RT #BrainLock. |
