homework and exercises - Electric power transmission


If we want to transmit electic current for a long distance, we must minimize a heat that releases because of the resistanse. We cannot make a cable wide because it is expensive and it will be massive. So, we must decrease a current because $Q = I^2R\Delta t$. A power that we want to transmit is constant, $P = UI$, so we must increase the voltage. Nevertheless, $Q = \frac{U^2}{R}\Delta t$, so if we increase the voltage, the heat will increase too. And for addition, $U = IR$, so if we decrease the current, the voltage will decrease too.


Could you, explaine in details where I have a mistake.


P.S. sorry for my English, I am not a native speaker.
