Suppose, as in Figure 38.28

, a generator is supplying(time-averaged) power PL to a purely resistive load R. The voltage at the generator is V1(t) = ?2V1 cos ?t.The power is carried to the load along a single conductor with inductance L and negligible resistance. V2(t)is the voltage at the end of the conductor, where it connects to the load. This is an example of an LR circuit and can be analyzed using complex impedance as described in ?38.2.2. Show that the power delivered to the load is PL = V21 cos2 ?/R and that V2(t) = ?2V2 cos(?t ? ?) with V2 = V1 cos ?, where the phase difference ? between the voltages satisfies tan ? =?L/R. Combine these results to show that PL = V1V2 sin ?/?L, thereby deriving eq. (38.16)
