Youre working on a new high-speed rail system it uses


You're working on a new high-speed rail system. It uses 6000-horsepower electric locomotives, getting power from a single overhead wire with resistance 15 mOhms/km, at 27 kV potential relative to the track. Current returns through the track, whose resistance is negligible. Energy-efficiency standards call for no more than 3 % power loss in the wire. How far from the power plant can the train go and still meet this standard?
