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?

उत्तर
Case: 1
Power (P) = 420W
Applied Voltage (V) = 220V
Current \(\mathrm{I}=\frac{\mathrm{P}}{\mathrm{V}}=\frac{420}{220}=1.9 \mathrm{A}\)
Case: 2
Power (P) = 180 W
Applied Voltage (V) = 2.20 V
Current \(\mathrm{I}=\frac{\mathrm{P}}{\mathrm{V}}=\frac{180}{220}=0.8 \mathrm{A}\)

In a set up the students coated iron nails with zinc metal and noted that, iron nails coated with zinc prevents rusting. They also observed that zinc initially acts as a physical barrier, but an extra advantage of using zinc is that it continues to prevent rusting even if the layer of zinc is damaged. Name this process of rust prevention and give any two other methods to prevent rusting.
