The resistance of the heating element is 21.61 Ω
Given
The power dissipated = 1500 W
Voltage = 180 V
We know that
Power = Voltage * Current
⇒ Power / Voltage = Current
⇒ 1500 W/180 V = Current
⇒ 8.33 A = Current
In order to calculate the resistance of the heating element. We Have to apply the formula
Power = (Current)^2 * Resistance
⇒ Resistance = Power / (Current)^2
⇒ Resistance = 1500 W/ (8.33) ^2
⇒ Resistance = 21.61 Ω
Hence the resistance of the heating element is 21.61 Ω
