    A rise of temperature\[5{}^\circ C\]is observed in a conductor by passing a current. If the current is doubled the rise in temperature will be

    A)  \[10{}^\circ C\]                                

    B)  \[20{}^\circ C\] 

    C)  \[5{}^\circ C\]                                  

    D)  \[25{}^\circ C\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    Heat produced in a wire of resistance R in time \[t\]is \[Q={{I}^{2}}Rt\] Also heat required to raise the temperature of a wire by \[\Delta T\]is                 \[Q=ms\Delta T\] Here          \[Q=Q\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[ms\Delta T={{I}^{2}}Rt\] Since, m, S,R and tare constant. So,          \[\Delta T\propto {{I}^{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{\Delta {{T}_{2}}}{\Delta {{T}_{1}}}={{\left( \frac{{{I}_{2}}}{{{I}_{1}}} \right)}^{2}}={{\left( \frac{2I}{I} \right)}^{2}}=4\] \[\therefore \]  \[\Delta {{T}_{2}}=4\times 5=20{}^\circ C\]
