A current $\text{I}$ flows through a resistor of resistance $\text{R}$ when the potential difference across it is $\text{V}$. Applying Ohm's law, write the formula for amount of heat produced by the resistor in time $\text{t}$.
Show SolutionHide Solution
(a) A part of current is consumed into useful work and rest is expended in heat to raise the temperature of gadget.
(any other suitable explanation)
(b)
$W=V \times Q= VIt = IR \times It$
$H = I^2Rt$ / $H = \frac{V^2}{R}t$
