Question

The formula for Joule’s heating effect is represented as __________. (In the options, H denotes the heat produced, I is the current flowing through the conductor, R is the resistance and t is the time period.)

A.

H = QIt

B.

H = VIR

C.

H = VIt

D.

H = IRt

Correct option is C

The correct answer is: (C) H = VIt

The formula H = VIt is one of the expressions for the Joule’s heating effect, where:

  • H is the heat produced,
  • V is the voltage,
  • I is the current, and
  • t is the time the current flows.

This formula is derived from the relationship between power and energy, where power PPP is given by P=VIP = VIP=VI (where VVV is the voltage and III is the current).

Over time ttt, the heat produced is the energy consumed, hence the formula for heat becomes H=VItH = VIt H=VIt.
