If a 500-W heater carries a current of 4.00A, what is the resistance of the heating element?
Solution
Given:
Power of Heater = P = 500 W
current carrying = I = 4 A
Resistence of the element = R = ?
It is Known by the formula ,
P = I2 R
R = P / I2
= (500)/ (4)2
= 500 / 16
= 31.25
Power of Heater = P = 500 W
current carrying = I = 4 A
Resistence of the element = R = ?
It is Known by the formula ,
P = I2 R
R = P / I2
= (500)/ (4)2
= 500 / 16
= 31.25
