An overhead transmission cable for electrical power is 2000 m long and consists of two parallel copper wires, each encased in insulating material. A short circuit has developed somewhere along the length of the cable where the insulation has worn thin and the two wires are in contact. As a power-company employee, you must locate the short so that repair crews can be sent to that location. Both ends of the cable have been disconnected from the power grid. At one end of the cable (point A), you connect the ends of the two wires to a 9.00-V battery that has negligible internal resistance and measure that 2.86 A of current flows through the battery. At the other end of the cable (point B), you attach those two wires to the battery and measure that 1.65 A of current flows through the battery. How far is the short from point A
