प्रश्न
An electric kettle of 2 kW is used for 2h. Calculate the energy consumed in
- kilowatt hour and
- joules.

उत्तर
(i) Power, P = `"E"/"t"`
So, energy consumed, E = P × t = 2 × 2 = 4 kWh
(ii) Energy consumed, E = 4 kWh
= 4 × 1000 × 3600 J
= 1.44 × 107 J

Compute the heat generated while transferring 96000 coulomb of charge in one hour through a potential difference of 50 V.
Solve the following example.
Two tungsten bulbs of wattage 100 W and 60 W power work on 220 V potential difference. If they are connected in parallel, how much current will flow in the main conductor?
Statement 1 : Electric current ( flow of electrons ) creates heat in the resistor.
Statement 2 : Heat in the resistor is created according to the rule of energy conservation.
Explain Statement 1 with the help of Statement 2.
Give scientific reason :
In the electric equipment producing heat e.g. iron, electric heater, boiler, toaster, etc., an alloy such as Nichrome is used, not pure metals.
How can overloading be avoided?
Explain the heating effect of electric current.
Mark the correct choice
- Assertion: Electric appliances with a metallic body have three wire connections.
- Reason: Three-pin connections reduce the heating of the connecting wires.
An electric iron consumes energy at the rate of 420 W when heating is at the maximum rate and 180 W when heating is at the minimum rate. The applied voltage is 220 V. What is the current in each case?
An electric iron draws a current of 4 A when connected to 220 V mains. Its resistance must be:
