[MP PMT/PET 1998]

Options:

A) 0.1 watt

B) 1 watt

C) 10 watt

D) 100 watt

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

For power transmission power loss in line $ P _{L}=i^{2}R $ If power of electricity is P and it is transmitted at voltage V, then $ P=Vi $

Therefore $ m=6.56g/s, $

$ P _{L}={{( \frac{P}{V} )}^{2}}R=\frac{P^{2}R}{V^{2}} $

$ =\frac{2.2\times 10^{3}\times 2.2\times 10^{3}\times 10}{22000\times 22000}=0.1W $
