Do "work done by the battery" and "the thermal energy developed"represent two names of the same physical quantity?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The velue of any given physical quantity may very over a wide rande, therefor, different units of same phusical quantity are required for example the length of a pen can be easily measured in cm, the height of a tree can be measured in metres, the distance between two cities can be measured in kilometres and distance between two heavenly bodies can be measured in light year.
