An electronic stove is rated 1000w, 240v. explain this statement. please I'm in need

Answer and Explanation:

When an electronic appliance such as electric heater, electric stove e.t.c is rated, the rating actually specifies the ideal working properties of the appliance. For example if it is rated 200W, 220V, it shows that the power the appliance will consume at a voltage of 220V is 200W.

Therefore, for the electronic stove mentioned with a rating of 1000W, 240V, the stove will consume or draw a power of 1000 watts at a voltage of 240volts.

Ratings can also help determine some other properties of the appliance such as current consumption and resistance in the appliance. For the given electronic stove, the current consumed can be found by using the following relation:

P = IV                 -------------(i)

Where;

P = Power rating = 1000W

I = Current used

V = Voltage rating = 240V

Substituting these values into equation (i) gives;

1000 = I x 240

I = = 4.17A

Therefore, the current used by the stove is 4.17A

To get the resistance R of the stove, we can use the relation;

P =

R =

R =

R = 57.6Ω

Therefore, the resistance of the stove is 57.6Ω

a.) is the correct answer.
