Question

14. A 600 W electric heater is
connected to a 120 V source. What
current flows through the heater?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

power = v²/r

600 = 120 x 120 / r

r = 120 x 120 / 600

r = 12 x 12 / 6

r = 144 / 6

r = 24 ohm

v = ir

120  = i x 24

i = 120 / 24

therefore, i = 5

Answer 2

Answer:

5A of heat flows through the heater

Explanation:

I = 600/1×0

I = 5A
