    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.
    When a car has a dead battery, it can often be started by connectingthe battery from another car across its terminals. The positive terminalsare connected together as are the negative terminals. The connection isillustrated in P1.12. Assume the current i in P1.12 is measuredand found to be 40 A.1. a) Which car has the dead battery?2. b) If this connection is maintained for 1.5 min, how much energy istransferred to the dead battery?
    COURSE: HIGH VOLTAGE TECHNIQUE In an insulating environment consisting of insulating oil (Ɛr1=12.5) and porcelain (Ɛr2=2.5), the electric field enters the porcelain environment through the oil at an angle of 50 relative to the normal of the border surface. Since the field strength is 87 kV/cm in oil environment, calculate the electric field strength in the porcelain environment, the tangent and normal components of the electric field strength in both environments.

  • Figure P1.27 shows an ammeter (AM) and voltmeter (VM) connected to measure thecurrent and voltage, respectively, for circuit element A. When current actually enters the + terminalof the ammeter, the reading is positive, and when current leaves the + terminalreading is negative. If the actual voltage polarity is positive at the + terminal of the VM, thereading is positive; otherwise, it is negative. (Actually, for the connection shown, the ammeterreads the sum of the current in element A and the very small current taken by the voltmeter. Forpurposes of this problem, assume that the current taken by the voltmeter is negligible.) Find thepower for element A and state whether energy is being delivered to element A or taken from it if a. the ammeter reading is +2 A and the voltmeter reading is +30 V.b. the ammeter reading is -2 A and the voltmeter reading is - 30 V.c. the ammeter reading is -2 A and the voltmeter reading is + 30 V.
    True or False: 1. When there is electric current, there is electricity. 2. A wire resistance of 1 ohm per 1000 ft is bigger than a wire resistance of 1 ohm per 1000 m.  3. DC voltages are the usual voltages we generate in conventional power plants.
    Assume that a 20 V voltage drop occurs across an element fromterminal 2 to terminal 1 and that a current of 4 A enters terminal 2.1. Specify the values of v and i for the polarity references shown inFig. 1.6(a)–(d).2. Calculate the power associated with the circuit element.3. Is the circuit element absorbing or delivering power?
