An electric iron is connected to the mains power supply of 220 V. When the electric iron is adjusted at 'minimum heating' it consumes a power of 360 W but at 'maximum heating' it takes a power of 840 W. Calculate the current and resistance in each case.
Give Scientific reason
In the electric equipment producing heat e.g. iron, electric heater, boiler, toaster etc, an alloy such as Nichrome is used, not pure metals.
Give a scientific reason:
For electric power transmission, copper or aluminium wire is used.
Statement 1 : Electric current ( flow of electrons ) creates heat in the resistor.
Statement 2 : Heat in the resistor is created according to the rule of energy conservation.
Explain Statement 1 with the help of Statement 2.
Give scientific reason :
