Q7.

a) A coil of resistance 24 Ω and inductance 5.73mH is connected in series with a capacitance of 88.4μF across a 90V, 500Hz supply. Calculate the overall impedance and the supply current. [ 8 2 / 3 marks ]

b) In a series RLC circuit, R=0.5 Ω, L=12.7mH and C=8μF. Calculate the resonant frequency and the impedance at 500Hz. [ 8 marks ]

Q8.

a) A circuit of resistance 10Ω and inductance 76.4mH in series is connected to a 130V , 50Hz supply. Calculate the power factor. [ 6 2 / 3 marks ]

b) A 200-V, 50-Hz motor-pump set lifts 600 kg of water per minute through a height of 20m. If the overall efficiency of the set is 61.3%, and the current taken 20A, calculate

  1. the power factor of the motor
  2. the value of the parallel capacitance required to improve the power factor to unity. [ 10 marks ]
