★Power loss = 2,00,000 W
Given
- A cable with resistance 500 Ω carrying a current of 20A.
To find
- The power loss.
Solution
- The power loss is defined as the loss of electric charges in carrying from input to output or in supplying from one part to another.
★We know,
- The power loss = voltage × current
- P = V I
★Where
- V = voltage
- I = current
- As we learned,
★Now
- V = I R
- I = 20A
- R = 500 Ω
- ➝ 500 × 20
- ➝ 10,000 V
★So
- P = V I
- ➝ 10,000 × 20
- ➝ 2,00,000 W
Hence The power loss is 2,00,000 W
★FORMULA USED
- Voltage = Current × Resistance
- Power = Voltage × Current

GIVEN
- Cable resistance 500 Ω with a current of 20A
TO FIND
- Power loss
FORMULA USED
- Voltage = Current × Resistance
- Power = Voltage × Current
CALCULATION
Power loss is known as the loss of electric charges from input to output.
NOW,
V = I R
Putting the given value, we get,
- 500 × 20
- 10,000 V
P = V I
- 10,000 × 20
- 2,00,000 W
★ Thus, the Power loss is 2,00,000 .
