An electric iron of resistance 20Ω takes a current of 5A. Calculate the heat developed in 30 s |
|
Answer» The amount of heat(H)produced is given by the joule’s law of heating as, H = VIt, where Current, I = 5A Time, t = 30s ∴ Voltage, V = I * R = 5 * 20 = 100 V ∴ H = 100 * 5 * 30 = 1.5 * 104 J Therefore, the amount of heat developed in the electric iron is 1.5 * 104 J. |
