A power plant produces 1000 MW to supply a city 40 km away. Current flows from the power plant on a single wire with resistance through the city, and returns via the ground, which has negligible resistance. At the power plant the voltage between wire and ground is 115 kV. Find (a) the current in the wire and (b) the fraction of the power lost in transmission

An engineer designs a roller coaster so that a car travels horizontally for 152 ft, then climbs 137 ft at an angle of 34.0° above the horizontal. it then moves 137 ft at an angle of 48.0° below the horizontal. if we take the initial horizontal motion of the car to be along the +x-axis, what is the car's displacement? (give the magnitude of your answer, in ft, to at least four significant figures and give the direction of your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.)
