The resistance of an electrical toaster has a temperature dependence given byRT=R01+αT-T0in its range of operation. AtT0=300 K, R=100 Ω and at T=500 K, R=120 Ω. The toaster is connected to a voltage source at200 Vand its temperature is raised at a constant rate from300 to 500 Kin30 s. The total work done in raising the temperature is :

Answer:
A
Solution:

P= V 2 R =2002R0[1+α(T-T0)]

T → temperature at 't'

T 0 =300K → temperature at t = 0

T - T 0 = 5 0 0 - 3 0 0 3 0 t

T - T 0 = 2 0 0 3 0 t

T - T 0 = 2 0 t 3
