A two wire transmission line has a capacitance of 20 pF/m and a characteristic impedance of 50 `Omega`
(a) What is the inductance per metre of this cable ?
(b) Determine the impedance of an infinitely long section of such cable.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The characteristic impedance of a transmission line is the impedance that an infinite length of line would present to a power supply at the input end of the line. Thus, `Z_(oo) = Z_(0) = 50Omega`
