Detailed Solution

 The expression for heat generated in a conductor of resistance R with a current I flowing through it for time t is H=I2Rt.
H = I2Rt is the expression for Joules law of heating, where H is the heat produced and R is the resistance of a conductor. There is a constant current I flowing through the conductor in given time t. Let a current I flow through a resistance R and let the potential difference be V and t be the time for which the current flows. We know the total amount of electric charge will be Q=It
Using the formula for work: W=VQ
W=VIt ------- (1)
Here the work done is equal to the heat produced hence
H=VIt  ------- (2)
Now, using Ohm’ law V=IR   --------(3)
Substituting (3) in (2)
H=IRIt
H=I2Rt
