Question: A power station generates P = 2 4 0 [ k W ] power and transmits that power over transmission line to the nearby city

A power station generates P=240[kW] power and transmits that power over transmission line to the nearby city that has Rwire=0.4[] resistance.
a) Calculate the power loss when the electric potential on the cable is V=2400[V]. Consider that resistance of the cable is R=VI and the power is P=VI.
b) Can any fraction of this power be delivered at V=240[V] on the same cable.
A power station generates P = 2 4 0 [ k W ] power
