21. A two conductor 1 - pi line operates at 50 Hz. The diameter of each conductor is 4 cm and are spaced 6 m apart. What is the capacitive susceptance to neutral per km?

22. A two conductor 1 - pi line operates at 50 Hz. The diameter of each conductor is 20mm and the spacing between conductor is 3m. When the conductor material is steel of relative permeability 50, the loop inductance per km of the line will be

23. A 100 km transmiesion line ia deaigned for a nominal voltage of 132 kV and conaiala of one conductor per phase. The line reactance is 0.726 ohm/km. The static transmission capacity of the line, in Megawatts, would be

24. A transmission line conductor at a river crossing is supported from two towers at height. of 30 m and 90m, above water level. The horizontal distance between the towers is 270m, if the tension in the conductor is 1800 kg and the conductor weight 1 kg/m. What is the clearance between the conductor and the water at a point midway between the towers?

25. A transmission line haB a span of 275 m between level supporte. The conductor has a diameter of 19.58 mm, weight 0.844 kgpm and has an ultimate breaking strength of 7950 kgf. Each conductor has a radial covering of ice 9.58 mm thick and is subjected to a horizontal wind pressure of 40 k617m2 of ice covering projected area. If the factor of safety is 2, what is the deflected sag? Ice weight is 913.5 kg/m3
