Why are wires supplying electric current to the water heater thicker than those supplying current to the lights?

the water heater operates at high power compared to the lights and so the water heater requires a larger current. The wires supplying current to the water heater are thicker so that the wires have a low resistance. This reduces the risk of the wires overheating.

What energy transfers or changes happen when using an immersion heater to warm water?

When using an immersion heater to warm water, electrical energy is converted into heat energy. The electrical energy from the power source powers the heating element in the immersion heater, which in turn produces heat energy that transfers to the surrounding water, increasing its temperature.


How is the efficiency of a water heater measured and what factors can affect its performance?

The efficiency of a water heater is measured by its Energy Factor (EF), which indicates how much of the energy input is converted into hot water. Factors that can affect a water heater's performance include the type of fuel used, the size and design of the heater, the temperature setting, and the frequency of maintenance.
