The circuit below is used to heat water kept in a bucket.
Assuming heat loss only by Newton's law of cooling, the variation in the temperature of the water in the bucket as a function of time is depicted by
Options
- A

- B

- C

- D

Correct answer
C. 
Step-by-step solution
In given condition,
Heat gained by water heater Heat lost governed by Newton's law of cooling = Net heat gained by water
Here, temperature and time.
Above equation can be written as,
or
Integrating, we get
Hence, temperature depends on time exponentially.
Best suitable graph is
