NEET Physics Current Electricity, Charging & Discharging Of Capacitors / वर्तमान बिजली, चार्ज और कैपेसिटर का निर NEET PYQ-Current Electricity Charging Capacitors

  • question_answer
    Two cities are 150 km apart. Electric power is sent from one city to another city through copper wires. The fall of potential per km is 8 V and the average resistance per km is \[0.5\,\,\Omega \]. The power loss in the wire is  [NEET 2014]

    A)  19.2 W

    B)       19.2 kW

    C)  19.2 J 

    D)       12.2 Kw

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] Potential difference (drop) between two cities
                \[=150\,\times 8\,=1200\,V\]
    Average resistance of total wire \[=0.5\times 150\]
                \[=75\Omega \]
    Power loss \[P=\frac{{{V}^{2}}}{R}=\frac{1200\times 1200}{75}=19200W\]
                \[=19.2kW\]
