  1. A distribution system shown in the figure below.

    The point of minimum potential along the tract from A will be _______ m
    1. 3.67 m
    2. 367 m
    3. 36.7 m
    4. 0.367 m
Correct Option: A

Potential of P = 575 – IA 0.04 x
= 590 – (600 – IA) 0.04 (8 – x)

Simplifying, we have x =
1
(177 - 0.32IA)
24

and IA =
177 - 24x
0.32

then, VP = 575 - IA 0.04x
= 575 –
177 - 24x
0.04x
0.32

= 575 – 22.01 x – 3x²
dVp
= - 22.01 - 6x - 3x² = 0
dx

or x = 3.67 m
