Question

on which factors does the amount of heat generated depend in a wire through which an electric current passes​

Answer 1

The amount of heat generated depends upon :-

1. The resistance of the wire

2. The magnitude of the current passing through it

3. Time in which the current passes throught the wire.

Answer 2

Answer:

Heat produced by an electric current depends on the following factors:

(i) Heat produced is directly proportional to square of current.

(ii) Heat produced is directly proportional to resistance.

(iii) Heat produced is directly proportional to the time for which current flows.
