Water in an electric kettle connected to a 220 V supply took 5 minutes to reach its boiling point. How long will it take if the supply voltage falls to 200 V?


Express watt hour and kilowatt hour in joule.


The equation I2R seems to suggest that the rate of heating in a resistor is reduced if resistance decreases, whereas equation P = V2/R suggests just the opposite. How do you reconcile this problem?


A house is provided with 15 bulbs of 40W, 5 bulbs of 100W, 5 fans of 80 W, and one heater of 1.0 kW. Each day bulbs are used for 4h, fans for lOh, and heater for 2h. The voltage of mains is 220 V. Calculate:
