Question

A geyser is rated 1000 W, 200V. When connected to 200 V mains, the current drawn is

Answer 1

Answer is : “Current drawn is 1000/200 = 5A as I=P/V” 

Please find the explanation below:

“Power – Voltage x Current or P = VI”

“Here P = 1000 Watts, Voltage = 250 V”

“So I or Current = P/V = 1000/200 = 5 Ampere”

Answer 2

Data:
Power = P = 1000 W
Potential difference = V = 200 V
Current = I = ?
Solution:
Since,
P = Vx I
I = P / V
Substituting the values, we get:
I = 1000/200
I = 5 A
which is the required answer.
Hopefully it helps. Thanks.
