The length of wire having resistance of 2 ohm/m in a heater rated at 2000 W and 240 V will be

MCQ-1 The length of wire having a resistance of 2 ohm/m in a heater rated at 2000 W and 240 V will be

(A) 57.84 meter

(B) 55.80 meter

(C)  56.20 meter

(D) 50.8 meter


Ans:(A) 57.84 meter


Explanationation :

Here is given that

Resistance = 2 Ohm/ Meter

Heater rating P = 2000 W

Voltage V = 240 V

Length of Heater Wire L=?


Power P = Voltage V * Current I

     2000  = 240 * Current I

Current I = 2000 / 240 

Current I = 8.3 A


As per Ohm Law

R = V/I

R = 240/8.3

R = 28.92 ohm 


Here is given that Resistance is 2 Ohm per meter 

So length of wire L = 28.92 * 2

                            L = 57.84 meter



MCQ-2 The resistance of a lamp rated at 250 V and 80 watts equal to

(A) 782.45 Ohm

(B) 781.25 Ohm

(C) 783.25 Ohm

(D) 756.35 ohm


Ans:(B) 781.25 Ohm


Explanation:

Here is given that

Voltage V = 250 V

Power P = 80 W 

Resistance R =?


Power P = Voltage V * Current I

     80  = 250 * Current I

Current I = 80 / 250

Current I = 0.32 A


As per Ohm Law

R = V/I

R = 250/0.32

R = 781.25 ohm 


Hence the resistance of Lamp is 781.25 ohm.
