A high-voltage transmission line carries 1,000A at 700,000 V. What is the power carried by the line?

If the resistance in the wire is 1ohm/mile and the line is 110 miles long, what is the power loss due to resistive losses in this wire?
a. 11kW
b. 110kW
c. 11 MW
d. 110 MW

Answer:

d. 110 MW

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the power loss is given below:

= I^2 × R

= 1000^2 × 110

= 110 × 10^6 W

= 110 MW

Here I represent the current through the resistance

ANd, R represent the resistance

So, the correct option is d
