Question

Current flows through a conductor connected across a voltage source. Now the resistance of the conductor is reduced to one fourth to its initial value and connected across the same voltage source. The heating effect in the conductor will become

(A) Half

(B) Double

(C) Four times

(D) One fourth

Answer 1

Correct option  (C) Four times

Explanation:

Heating effect is the wattage of the conductor.

lf resistance is reduced to one fourth then
