: why do blow dryers consume so much power?
In: Technology
blowdriers need somethnig ot heat up the air they blow out
the act of blowing out the air is not very energy significant, but heating is , reason being you need a heating element for the air to go thru, these elements are essentially resistances that whne electricty flows thru them, they wont let it pass easily requirint more power ot be delivered to them so that the current goes thru them.
this generates heat that the element emits(oftne it glows red hot even)
