If there are any that you cannot agree on, make the circuits and test them out, (Although we are using capacitors to extend the time for the transient currents, these transient currents exist for brief instances even in normal circuits.)

A power station provides electrical power to a city 50 miles away with a current of 2,000A at a potential of 143,000 V at the power station. 50 miles away at the first transformer station in the city, the potential is 140,000 V. a. What was the power loss along the wires? b.What was the resistance of the powerlines per mile? c. How many Joules of energy is transferred to the city in a day? 4d, How many Joules of work is each coulomb of electricity doing? c.Name two things the power company could do to reduce the power loss.
