The resistance of an electrical toaster has a temperature dependence given by $R(T) = R_0[1 + \alpha(T - T_0)]$ in its range of operation. At $T_0 = 300\,K, R = 100\,\Omega$ and at $T = 500\,K, R = 120\,\Omega$. The toaster is connected to a voltage source of $200\,V$ and its temperature is raised at a constant rate from $300\,K$ to $500\,K$ in $30\,s$. The total work done in raising the temperature is:
