- You are the city planner in charge of running a high-efficiency power line from a power station to a new shopping center being built nearby. The power station is located on 1st St, and the shopping center is on Shopping Ln. The power station is M miles north of Shopping Ln, and the shopping center is N miles east of 1st St. While the power line can run above ground along 1st St, it must be run underground away from 1st St. In addition to the variable location of the switch point, there are three other variable parameters to consider for this scenario: 1) the cost relationship between running a power line above ground versus running the line below ground (i.e., in Prompt 1 it cost three times as much to run the wire underground, but perhaps it costs five times as much, or perhaps it costs D^2 as much), 2) the distance (M) from the power station to Shopping Ln, and 3) the distance (N) from the shopping center to 1st St. While all four parameters can affect the optimization process, the…arrow_forwardUsing Kirchoff's law.arrow_forwardQ4/ (A) What is the voltage measurement Vx-y , for the circuit shown below. 4v 4v 20 50 yarrow_forward
