The aluminum wire in a high-voltage transmission line is 2.7 cm in diameter. it is designed to carry a current of 1100 a. what is the voltage drop across a 32-km-long segment of this power line?

1660 V

Explanation:

Resistance should be determined and then voltage drop across the power line can be determined.

R = ρ L /A  

Here ρ = Resistivity of aluminum =

L = length = 32 km = 32,000 m

Area of cross section = A = π r² = π (0.027/2)² = 0.00057255 m²

Resistance = R =

( (32,000)/(0.00057255) = 1.5090 Ohms.

Voltage drop = V = I R = (1100)(1.5090) = 1659.9 V.

(If resistivity value is different, then the resistance will be different and hence final answer for voltage will also vary ).

what is the question?

i guess that visual aids present persuasive examples to what you are presenting, some factors would be theme (does it fit with the color, information, what you are presenting), size (can you see it, is it a big enough span of data/information), and overall look of the visual aid.

hope this : )
