A convex lens cannot produce heat. It can focus incident heat to a smaller area so that it is more intense.

How to calculate heat produced in the resistance?

It takes approximately 4.184 Joules of heat to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree C. 1 Joule is the energy of 1 Watt for 1 second (or 3,600,000 Joules equals 1 Kilowatt-hour). In more real world numbers: It takes 69.7 watts 1 minute to heat a liter of water 1 degree C; or 146.6 watts in 1 minute to heat a gallon of water 1 degree F. A watt is a watt, weather it comes from resistance, radiant or induction. The only variations will come from the efficientcy of the heat source's design and how it is being used.


A flat iron that has a resistance of 10 ohms is used for about 4 hourshow much heat is produced if the current is 10 amperes?

This can be calculate quite simply using the following steps. First calculate the power loss (as heat energy) from the iron using the relationship: P= I2R, P is power in Watts, I is current in Amps, R is resistance in Ohms. In this case P = 102 x 10 = 1000 W Next convert 4 hours into the standard time unit, seconds. 4 hours = 60 seconds per minute * 60 minutes per hour * 4 hours = 14400s Finally calculate how much heat energy is produced during this time using the relationship: E = Pt, P is power in Watts, E is energy in Joules, t is time in seconds. In this case E = 1000 x 14400 = 14400000 J Or more appropriately 14.4 MJ (megajoules). Hope this helps, Tom
