Heat energy = H= I^2Rt

= (15)^2×500×30×60. •1min=60sec

H=202500000J
H=202.5MJ. •1MJ=10^6J

Given:
Resistance= R= 500 OHMS
Time= t= 30 min=30*60 Seconds
Current= I= 15A
Heat energy produced=?
Amount of heat energy produced will be given by Joule' s law of heating
H= V*I*t
V= IR ( by OHMS law)
= 15* 500 
= 7500 VOLTS.
H=7500*15*30*60
=20,250,0000 Joules
= 2025 x 10^5 Joules.
Therefore, the heat energy produced in the heater is 2025 x 10^5 Joules
