Question
If we take a typical cloud-to-ground lightning stroke to represent a current of 30 kA over an interval of \(150\ \mu s\), calculate (a) the instantaneous power delivered to a copper rod having resistance \(1.2\ m \Omega\) during the stroke; (b) the total energy delivered to the rod.
Solution
The first step in solving 11 problem number 10 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: If we take a typical cloud-to-ground lightning stroke to represent a current of 30 kA over an interval of \(150\ \mu s\), calculate (a) the instantaneous power delivered to a copper rod having resistance \(1.2\ m \Omega\) during the stroke; (b) the total energy delivered to the rod.
From the textbook chapter AC Circuit Power Analysis you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
