Current Electricity Charging Discharging Of Capacitors Question 469
Question: Heat produced in a wire of resistance R due to current flowing at constant potential difference is proportional to
[MP PET 1993]
Options:
A) $ \frac{1}{R^{2}} $
B) $ \frac{1}{R} $
C) R
D) $ R^{2} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
At constant p.d., heat produced $ =\frac{V^{2}}{R},i.e.,H\propto \frac{1}{R} $
