A current of 2.3 A flows through a small immersion heater with a resistance 50 ohms. Calculate the amount of energy dissipated in the same time

Dear Student,

​​​​​​Given,
current through the small immersion heater, i=2.3A
Resistance of the immersion heater, R=50 Ω
Power dissipates or energy dissipated per sec. = i2R=(2.32)×50=264.5W or 264.5 Joules per second.
So, in one second the amount of energy dissipated is 264.5 J.

In the question time is not given. Assuming it to be t sec. Then,
the amount of energy dissipated in every t sec = 264.5×t J

Regards,
