Given data:
Power transmitted (P) = 2.2 kW = 2200 W
Line resistance (R) = 10 ohms
Transmission voltage (V) = 22,000 V
Step 1: Find the current (I) using the power formula:
P = V * I
Rearranging for I:
I = P / V
Substituting the values:
I = 2200 / 22000
I = 0.1 A
Step 2: Calculate power loss in the transmission line due to heat using Joule's law:
Power loss (P_loss) = I² * R
Substituting the values:
P_loss = (0.1)² * 10
P_loss = 0.01 * 10
P_loss = 0.1 W
Thus, the power loss in the form of heat is 0.1 W.
