How long does it take a 750W heater to raise the temperature of 1kg of water from 20
oC to 50
oC [specific heat capacity of water = 4200Jkg
-1K
-1]
-
A.
84s
-
B.
112s
-
C.
168s
-
D.
280s
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation
Heat energy = Elect. energy
mc\(\theta\) = power x time
1 x 4200 x (50 - 20) = 750 x t
t = 168s
