Case Study & Numericals-
Whenever an electric current is passed through a conductor, it becomes hot after some time. The
phenomenon of the production of heat in a resistor by the flow of an electric current through it is called
heating effect of current or Joule heating. Thus, the electrical energy supplied by the source of emf is
converted into heat. In purely resistive circuit, the energy expended by the source entirely appears as heat.
But if the circuit has an active element like a motor, then a part of energy supplied by the source goes to
do useful work & the rest appears as heat. Joule’s law of heating forms the basis of various electrical
appliances such as electric bulb, electric furnace, electric press etc.
22. Which of the following is correct statement?
(a) Heat produced in a conductor is independent of the current flowing.
(b) Heat produced in a conductor varies inversely as the current flowing.
(c) Heat produced in a conductor varies directly as the square of the current flowing.
(d) Heat produced in a conductor varies inversely as the square of the current flowing.
