HEATING EFFECT OF AN ELECTRIC CURRENT

When current flows, electrical energy is transformed into other forms of energy i.e. light, mechanical and chemical changes. Factors affecting electrical heating Energy dissipated by current or work done as current flows depends on, a) Current b) Resistance c) Time This formula summarizes these factors as, E = I2 R t, E = I V […]
