Question

The power dissipated as heat in a conductor of resistance $R$ due to current $I$ through it, is called ________.

• A. Joule's loss
• B. $I^{2}R$ loss
• C. Either $\left(1\right)$ or $\left(2\right)$
• D. Neither $\left(1\right)$ nor $\left(2\right)$

Answer 1

The correct option is C Either $\left(1\right)$ or $\left(2\right)$

The loss in power in electric circuit due to heat produced in conductors due to their resistance is called $Joul{e}^{\prime }sheat$.

Heat loss is given by $I^{2}R$.

Answer-(C)
