Problem

An electric iron is rated 1000 W,  250 V1000\,\text{W},\;250\,\text{V}. (i) Find the current it draws when operated at its rated voltage. (ii) If it is instead connected to a 200 V200\,\text{V} supply and its resistance does not change, calculate the power it will consume under this condition.
