उत्तर
Given resistance, R = 200 Ω
Voltage, V = 200 V
time, t = 5 min
= 5 × 60 sec
= 300 sec
As, Energy, E = `("V"^2"t")/"R"`
In kWh
As 1 kWh = 3.6 × 106 J
1 J = `1/(3.6 xx 10^6)` kWh
60000 J = `60000/(3.6 xx 10^6)` = 0.0167 kWh

The diagram above is a schematic diagram of a household circuit. The house shown in the above diagram has 5 usable spaces where electrical connections are made. For this house, the mains have a voltage of 220 V and the net current coming from the mains is 22A.
- What is the mode of connection to all the spaces in the house from the mains?
- The spaces 5 and 4 have the same resistance and spaces 3 and 2 have respective resistances of 20Ω and 30Ω. Space 1 has a resistance double that of space 5. What is the net resistance for space 5.
- What is the current in space 3?
- What should be placed between the main connection and the rest of the house’s electrical appliances to save them from accidental high electric current?
