Question

A 440.0-volt electric heater draws 10.0 amperes of current. according to Ohms law,what is the resistenace of the heater

Answer 1

The resistance of the heater is 44 ohms.

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of electric heater, V = 440 volts

Current drawn by the heater, I = 10 A

We need to find the resistance of the heater. It is a case of Ohm's law. Its mathematical form is given by :

`V=IR`

R is resistance of the heater

`R=(V)/(I)\\\\R=(440\ V)/(10\ A)\\\\R=44\ \Omega`

So, the resistance of the heater is 44 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.
