Spot welding of two $$1$$ $$mm$$ thick sheets of steel (density $$ = 8000kg/{m^3}$$ ) is carried out successfully by passing a certain amount of current for $$0.1$$ second through the electrodes. The resultant weld nugget formed is $$5$$ $$mm$$ in diameter and $$1.5$$ $$mm$$ thick. If the latent heat of fusion of steel is $$1400$$ $$kJ/kg$$ and the effective resistance in the welding operation is $$200\mu \Omega ,$$ the current passing through the electrodes is approximately

Two 1 mm thick steel sheets are to be spot welded at a current of $$5000$$ $$A.$$ Assuming effective resistance to be $$200$$ micro-ohms and current flow time of $$0.2$$ second, heat generated during the process will be

Match the following

resistance spot welding is performed on two plates of $$1.5$$ $$mm$$ thickness with $$6$$ $$mm$$ diameter electrode, using $$15000$$ $$A$$ current for a time duration of $$0.25sec$$. assuming the interface resistance to be $$0.0001\Omega ,$$ the heat generated to form the weld is
