Workout Problem 2. (15 points) The source in the circuit below is operating at 10 Vrms with radian frequency 40 radi- ans/second. The load in the box is 3000 W at a power factor of 0.6 lagging (i.e., the angle of the load current is smaller than the angle of the load voltage). See the figure. Find:

(a) the reactive power absorbed by the load in the box (in VAR).

(b) the value of the capacitor C (in F) to adjust the power factor of the combined load to unity (i.e., PF = 1).
