    An electric kettle takes 4 A current at 220 V. How much time will it take to boil 1 kg of water from temperature 20°C? The temperature of boiling water is 100°C

    A) 6.3 min

    B)        8.4 min

    C) 12.6 min

    D) 4.2 min

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

         Key Idea: Heat evolved due to Joule's effect is used up in boiling water.    As per key idea\[VIt=ms\Delta t\] or\[t=\frac{ms\Delta t}{VI}\] Putting under given values \[I=4A,V=220\]volt,\[m=1kg,\] \[\Delta t={{(100-20)}^{o}}C,s=4200J/k{{g}^{o}}C\] \[\therefore \]\[t=\frac{1\times 4200\times 80}{220\times 4}=6.3\min \]
