First figure the heaters resistance
R heather = 14 Ω + (970 – 20)(0.0004) = 14.38 Ω
P heater = 110( 110/14.38) = 841.4 watts
Is that 14 ohms ?
is that α = 0.0004 /ºC ?
please try to get the units straight. o is not an abbreviation for degrees.
R = 14 (1 + 0.0004*950) = 19.3 ohms
P = E²/R = 110²/19.3 = 626 watts
