Question

Transcribed Image Text:EXERCISE
Consider a heater rated at 120 V with power 2.8 kW.
Hint
(a) What is the resistance of the heater (in Q), and the current (in A) when it is under normal operation?
R =
Ω
I =
A
(b) If we connect it a 240 V source, assuming that it still works, what will be the actual power consumption now (in kW)?
kW
