Given information

It is given that

A pair of power transmission lines each have a  resistance ,      

It carry a current ,  

The distance over which this current is carried is given by  

Input Voltage is given by         

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

The pair of transmission lines ( 2 lines) each carrying resistance of   can be thought of as  2 Resistors connected across an input voltage of in an electrical circuit.

 Hence there will be voltage drop across the 2 resistors and the net voltage received on the other end will be less than the supply voltage or input voltage as mentioned in the question.

 

Converting the units:
