Name any 5 electric appliances that make use of heating effects of electric current?

Five electric appliances that make use of the heating effects of electric current are electric stoves, electric kettles, hair dryers, toaster ovens, and space heaters.

What determines whether a 100 watt light bulb costs more to use than a 1200 watt hair dryer costs to use?

The cost to use a device depends on its power consumption (wattage) and the time it is used. The 1200 watt hair dryer will cost more to use if it is used for a longer period of time compared to the 100 watt light bulb. Additionally, the cost of electricity per unit consumed (kilowatt-hour) will also affect the overall cost.


Does the hair dryer evaporate water?

Why does a 100W light bulb cost more than a 1200-W hair dryer does?

The cost of a light bulb is higher due to factors such as the materials used, manufacturing process, and design specifications. Hair dryers may be less expensive because they are often mass-produced, using simpler components and assembly processes. Additionally, the demand and competition in the market for each product can influence pricing.
