"An electric heating element consumes 500 W, when connected to a 100 V line. If the line voltage becomes 150 V, the power consumed Will be: (a) 500 W (b) 750 W (c) 1000 W (d) 1125 W
Added by Amara H.
Step 1
Given: Power (P) = 500 W Voltage (V) = 100 V Using the formula: R = V^2 / P R = 100^2 / 500 R = 10000 / 500 R = 20 ohms Show more…
