Good solution

The voltage length characteristic of a direct current (dc) arc is given by: V
(30 + 60/) volts,
where l is the length of the arc in cm. The power source characteristic is approximated by a
Then
straight line with an open circuit voltage 80 V and a short circuit current = 1000
amp.
the optimum arc length is
(a) 0.5 cm
(b) 0.267 cm
(c) 0.167 cm
(d) 0.34 cm
