Answer

33,000,000 joules or 33MJ

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the heat released by a substance is expressed as shown below;

where;

Q is the amount of heat released

p is the power expended

t is the time it takes


Since P = current * voltage\\P = IV

Then;


Q = IVt

Given the current I = 100A, supply voltage V = 220V and required time t = 25mins

t = 25 * 60 = 1500 seconds

Substituting these values ​​in the formula that we have;


Q = 100 * 220 * 1500\\Q = 22000*1500\\Q = 33,000,000Joules\ or\ 33MJ
