उत्तर
When electricity is applied to a conductor that is solely resistive, all of the energy from the electric current is converted to heat. Resistor heats up as a result. Electric current's heating impact is defined as the heating of a resistor as a result of electrical energy loss.

Two students decided to investigate the effect of water and air on iron object under identical experimental conditions. They measured the mass of each object before placing it partially immersed in 10 ml of water. After a few days, the object were removed, dried and their masses were measured. The table shows their results.
| Student | Object | Mass of Object before Rusting in g |
Mass of the coated object in g |
| A | Nail | 3.0 | 3.15 |
| B | Thin plate | 6.0 | 6.33 |
What might be the reason for the varied observations of the two students?
