Answer:

5/3sec

Explanation:

H=IVt

H=1000J

IV=240×2.5=600

10/6=t

5/3=t


ShirinBp: 1.67s
Explanation:

First, calculate the power that the hairdryer operates at:

P = IV = 2.5 × 240 = 600 W

Rearrange P=Et
P
=
E
t
and convert energy to Joules, so 1 kJ = 1000 J:

t=Ep
t
=
E
p
= 1000600
1000
600
= 1.67 s

or use and rearrange E = IVt, so t ​= EIV
octoglide: no E/IV
octoglide: Energy released in current circuit is termed as heat loss so E=H
ShirinBp: oh, okay. thanks
