15 kW power is supplied through a line of 0.5Omega resistance under 250 V potential difference .Fimd the efficiency of the supply in percentage .

Answer»

Solution :power , p = 15 kW = 15000 W
So , current N the supply line ,
`I=(P)/(V)=(15000)/(250)=60A`
power loss due to inactive resistance in the line
`I^(2)R=(60)^(2)xx0.5=1800W`,
Therefore , total power in line= 15000 + 1800 = 16800 W
`therefore"Efficiency"=("effective power")/("total power")xx100%`
`= (15000)/(16800)xx100%=89%`
