Physics · Current Electricity
A heating element using nichrome connected to a 240 V supply draws an initial current of 3.2 A which settles after a few seconds to a steady state value of 2.8 A. What is the steady temperature of the heating element if the room temperature is 27.0 °C? Temperature coefficient of resistance of nichrome averaged over the temperature range involved is1.70 × 10-4 °C-1.
