Electrical Power & Heating Effect

A resistor develops 500 J of thermal energy in 20 s when a current of 1.5A is passed through it. If the current is increased from 1.5A to 3A, what will be the energy developed in 20 s.

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. H∝I2H \propto I^2 for the same RR and tt.
  2. H′=500×(31.5)2=500×4=2000 JH' = 500 \times \left(\frac{3}{1.5}\right)^2 = 500 \times 4 = 2000\ \text{J}.
  3. So the answer is (b) 2000 J.
