Question: A 4 9 0 - kV , 1 2 5 - km , 6 0 - Hz , three - phase overhead transmission line, assumed

A 490-kV,125-km,60-Hz, three-phase overhead transmission line, assumed to be lossless, has a series inductance of 0.910 mH/km per phase and a shunt capacitance of 0.0123F/km per phase. (Due to the nature of this problem, do not use rounded intermediate valuesincluding answers submitted in WebAssignin your calculations.)
(a)
Determine the phase constant (in rad/km), the surge impedance Zc (in ), velocity of propagation v (in km/s), and the wavelength (in km) of the line.
= rad/kmZc=v= km/s= km
(b)
The receiving-end load is 800 MW at 0.8 power factor lagging and at 490 kV. At the sending end, determine the line-to-line voltage (in kVLL), current (in A), real power (in MW), and reactive power (in Mvar).(Enter the magnitudes.)
