A heater is labelled 800w and400v. (a)What does this labelling mean? (b)what is the power of the instrument when it is given a potential difference of 200v?What is the current flowing through it? (c)if the potential difference of 100v is given to the heater,what will the power of the instrument be?

a) Heater
    Power - 800w
    Voltage - 400v
b) Power when potential difference of 200v P given

c) P = VI = 100 × 2 = 200w
