A uniform 2-wire d.c. distributor 650 meters long is loaded with 0.28 ampere/ meter and is fed at one end. If the maximum permissible voltage drop is not to exceed 25 V, find the resistance/meter and cross-sectional area of the distributor conductor. Take p = 17X 10-6 n cm. resistance/meter =- ohms/meter area of cross-section3 cm?
