An electrical appliance having a resistance of 200Ω is operated at 200 V. Calculate the energy consumed by the appliance in 5 minutes (i) in joules (ii) in kWh.
The equation I2R seems to suggest that the rate of heating in a resistor is reduced if resistance decreases, whereas equation P = V2/R suggests just the opposite. How do you reconcile this problem?
