Question
The potential difference across a 4 ohm resistor is 20 V. Assuming all the energy dissipated is heat, how many joules of heat are produced in 10 seconds?
Correct Answer
Option A is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
P = V2/R = (20)2/4 = 100 W. E = Pt = 100 x 10 = 1000 J.
Hint
P = V2/R = (20)2/4 = 100 W.
