In a conductor with a resistance of 100 ohms, a current of 100 mA flows.

In a conductor with a resistance of 100 ohms, a current of 100 mA flows. How much heat is released in the conductor in 1 minute?

To calculate the heat released in the specified conductor in 1 minute, we apply the Joule-Lenz law: Q = I ^ 2 * R * t.

Data: I – current in the conductor (I = 100 mA = 0.1 A); R – resistance (R = 100 Ohm); t – elapsed time (t = 1 min = 60 s).

Calculation: Q = I ^ 2 * R * t = 0.1 ^ 2 * 100 * 60 = 60 J.

Answer: For 1 minute, 60 J of heat was released in the indicated conductor.
