A 100 Q transmission line has an effective dielectric constant of 1.65. Find the
shortest open-circuited length of this line that appears at its input as a capacitor of 54] A radio transmitter is connected to an antenna having an impedance 80 + j40 Q with
a 50 O coaxial cable. If the 50 Q transmitter can deliver 30 W when connected to a
50 Q load, how much power is delivered to the antenna?
