A power plant produces 1000MW to supply a city 40km away. Current flows from the power plant on a single wire with resistance through the city and returns via the ground, with negligible resistance. At the power plant the voltage between wire and ground is 115 kV. Determine: (a) the current in the wire, and (b) the fraction of the power lost in transmission.
Whale and Kanmuro are two islands located at the Chimera archipelago. These two are separated by a distance of 16 miles. A power link is to be established between them. The power link delivers a maximum power of 584 megawatts at full capacity with an operating voltage of 580 kilovolts. Note that 1 mile is 1.6 kilometers. Solve for the resistivity (in ohm-micrometers) of the cable asusming a conductor diameter of 1.55 centimeters.
