A water heater of power \(2000\,W\) is used to heat water. The specific heat capacity of water is \(4200\,J\,kg ^{-1}\, K ^{-1}\). The efficiency of heater is \(70 \%\). Time required to heat \(2\,kg\) of water from \(10^{\circ}\,C\) to \(60^{\circ}\,C\) is \(..........s\). (Assume that the specific heat capacity of water remains constant over the temperature range of the water).
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(300\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(Q = mc\Delta T = 2 \times 4200 \times (60 - 10) = 420000\,J\)
\(t = \frac{Q}{\eta P} = \frac{420000}{0.70 \times 2000} = 300\,s\)
