An electric heater with a p.d of 240 V connected across its terminals has a total resistance of 960Ω. find the power rating of the heater.
-
A.
0.25 W
-
B.
4.00 W
-
C.
38.40W
-
D.
60.00W
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation
Electrical power = IV or I
2R or (V)/R
With V = 240v, R = 960Ω
Power (V
2)/R = (240 X 240)/960
=60Watts
