    An electric kettle boils some water in 16 min. Due to some defect, it becomes necessary to remove 10% turns of heating coil of the kettle. Now, how much time will it take to boil the same amount of water?

    A) 19.6 min                              

    B) 12.7 min

    C) 14.4 min                              

    D) 15.0 min

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    We know,\[\frac{{{v}^{2}}t}{4.2R}=Q=msd\theta \] Let N = initial number of turns in the coil R = resistance of the coil Now, \[R=\rho \frac{l}{A}=\frac{\rho \times N\times 2\pi r}{A}\] Also,\[\frac{{{v}^{2}}tA}{4.2\times \rho \times N\times 2\pi r}=Q=msd\theta \] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{t}{N}=\] constant\[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{{{t}_{1}}}{{{N}_{1}}}=\frac{{{t}_{2}}}{{{N}_{2}}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{t}_{2}}=\frac{{{N}_{2}}}{{{N}_{1}}}\times {{t}_{1}}=\frac{9}{10}\times 16=14.4\min \]
