उत्तर
Joule's law of heating: When a current (I) flows through a resistor of resistance (R) for time (t), then the amount of heat produced (H) is given by
H = I2Rt
This is known as Joule’s law of heating.

Why does the connecting cord of an electric heater not glow hot while the heating element does?
Two exactly similar heating resistances are connected (i) in series, and (ii) in parallel, in two different circuits, one by one. If the same current is passed through both the combinations, is more heat obtained per minute when they are connected in series or when they are connected in parallel? Give reason for your answer.
Give Scientific reasons.
