What fraction of the input power is lost

Reference no: EM13561849

A transmission line that has a resistance per unit length of4.5*10^-4 ohms/meter is to be used to transmit 5.00MW over 400miles (6.44 *10^5m). The output voltage of the generator is4.50kV(rms).

(a) What is the line loss if a transformer is used to step upthe voltage to 500kV (rms)?

(b) WHat fraction of the input power is lost to the line underthese circumstances?
