Answer:
(a) = -0.16%
(b) = smaller
Explanation:
given
power = 460 W
potential difference = 120 V
(a) what percentage will its heat output drop if the applied potential difference drops to 110 V ?
we know .....................(i)
we need to find change in power
..............(ii)
from equations we get
(b)
if we increase temperature resistance will increase and decrease with decrease in temperature and we know power is inversely proportional to resistance so if potential decrease and it would cause drop in power
and due to this increment of heating power resistance will decrease so actual drop in the power would be smaller
