What are the heating effect of electric current |
|
Answer» heating effect of current is the heat which produced by the current carrying wire in which the current is flowing When current flows through the conductor and generates heat energy , due to which the appliance work . That is known as heating effect of electric current . When the current is passed through a high resistance carrying wire, like nichrome wire the wire becomes hot. This is called heating effect of electric current. When electric current is supplied to a purely resistive conductor, the energy of electric current is dissipated entirely in the form of heat and as a result, resistor gets heated. The heating of resistor because of dissipation of electrical energy is commonly known as Heating Effect of Electric Current. Some examples are as follows:When electric energy is supplied to an electric bulb, the filament gets heated because of which it gives light. The heating of electric bulb happens because of heating effect of electric current.When an electric iron is connected to an electric circuit, the element of electric iron gets heated because of dissipation of electric energy, which heats the electric iron. The element of electric iron is a purely resistive conductor. This happens because of heating effect of electric current. |
