The percentage of the power lost against total power produced is 16%.
What is electric power?
Electric power is the energy transmitted or dissipated over a given period of time.
The power lost during the power transmission is calculated as follows;
[tex]P = I^2R\\\\
P = (20 \times 10^3)^2 \times 0.2\\\\
P = 8 \times 10^7 \ W[/tex]
The percentage of the power lost against total power produced is calculated as follows;
[tex]= \frac{P_{lost}}{P_{total}} \times 100\%\\\\
= \frac{8\times 10^7}{500 \times 10^6} \times 100\%\\\\
= 16\%[/tex]
