Question 28
H

There is a current in a resistor. The resistor becomes warm.

Which statement explains the energy transfer?

[1]
A

Charge is used up in the resistor, which increases its thermal store

B

Current is changed into heat in the resistor, so less current leaves it

C

Charge flowing in the resistor increases the chemical store of the resistor

D

Work is done as charge flows through the resistor, increasing its thermal store
