Problem 1: A 6000V, 60Hz, single phase, two wire transmission line consists of hard-drawn aluminum conductors with a radius of 1.5 cm. The two conductors are spaced 1.25m apart, the transmission line is 40 km long and temperature of the conductors is 20°C. Answer the following questions. a) What is the series resistance per kilometer of the transmission line? b) What is the series inductance per kilometer of the transmission line? c) What is the shunt capacitance per kilometer of the transmission line? d) What is the total series impedance of the transmission line? e) What is the total shunt admittance of the transmission line?

A 60-ohm distortionless transmission line has a capacitance of 0.15 nF/m. The attenuation of the line is 1.15 * 10^-3 Np/m. Calculate: (i) The line parameter resistance, inductance, and conductance per meter of the line, (ii) Voltage at a distance of 1 km and 4 km with respect to the sending voltage.
