For a 500 Hz frequency excitation, a 50 km long power line will be

modelled as

1. Short line
2. Medium line
3. Long LIne
4. Data insufficient
Hide Explanation
Answer.3. Long Line
Explanation:
 For one full wave variation, the length of the line for 50 Hz
supply will be given as
fλ=v

Where
 f = Frequency 
  λ = length of the line
 v = Velocity of the wave i.e 3 x 10  m/s 
8

For 500 Hz

λ = v/f

= 3 x 10 / 500
8  

= 600 Km

Hence the transmission line above 250 Km is treated as Long


transmission line.
