Determine the amount of heat released in the heating device within 0.5 hours

Determine the amount of heat released in the heating device within 0.5 hours if it is connected to a 110 V network and has a resistance of 24 ohms.

These tasks: t (duration of the heating device) = 0.5 h (in SI t = 1800 s); U (mains voltage) = 110 V; R (resistance of the taken device) = 24 ohms.

The amount of heat that the taken heating device should emit during operation is calculated using the Joule-Lenz law: Q = U ^ 2 * t / R.

Let’s perform the calculation: Q = 110 ^ 2 * 1800/24 = 907 500 J.

Answer: In the taken heating device, 907,500 J of heat will be released in 0.5 hours of operation.
