Question

A bird is standing on an electric transmission line carrying 3000 amps of current. A wire like this has about 3 x 10^-5 Ohms of resistance per meter. The bird's feet are 6 cm apart. The bird itself has a resistance of about 4 x 10^5 Ohms. What voltage does the bird feel?

Answer 1

Answer:

Va-Vb =i ×(1/R1+1/R2)

=3000×(10^4/4+10^5/3)

=3000 ×(10^5)(4+3)/12

Va-Vb= 175× 10^6 V

Answer 2

Answer:

$175*10^6 V$

Explanation:

Here's everything we'll need to get started:

R is the electrical resistance of the conductor

V is the potential difference

We know that,

$Va-Vb =i(1/R1+1/R2)$

$=3000(10^4/4+10^5/3)$

$=3000(10^5)(4+3)/12$

$= 175*10^6 V$
