Compute the heat generated while transferring 96000 coulomb of charge in one hour through a potential difference of 50 V.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, charge, Q = 96000 C,
time t = 1 h = 60 `xx` 60 = 3600 s,
potential difference V = 50 V
Now,
Heat generated H = Vit
`=V(Q/I) t ( :. I =Q/t)`
` = VQ`
`= 50 xx 96000`
`=4800000 J`
`= 4.8 xx 10^6 J`
or
`= 4.8 xx 10^3 xx 10^3 J`
`= 4.8 xx 10^3 kJ`
`= 4800 kJ`
