An electric fan and a heater are marked as 100 watt , 220 volt and 1000 watt , 220 volt respectively. The resistance of the heater is

A

lesser than that of fan

B

greater than that of fan

C

equal to that of fan

D

nothing can be decided

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`P prop (V ^(2))/(R ) or R prop (1)/(P)`
So, the resistance of a heater is less than that of the fan.
