Detailed Solution

An electric iron takes a current of 5 A and develops 1.5 × 104 J of heat energy in 30 s. The resistance of the electronic iron will be 20 Ω.
Given that, current I= 5 A
Heat energy, H=1.5 ×104 J
Time t=30 s
From Joules Law of heating we have:
 H=I2Rt
 = HI2 t….(1)
Where I is the current, H is the heat, R is the resistance and is the time.
Put the above values in eq (1).
                          R = 1.5 ×10452×30
                          R= 20 Ω
