Question

I think I did A correctly by using the P = VI equation. I first found the current through the circuit, then multiplied it by the Vs. How do I solve B?

a) Find the average power dissipated in the line in Figure 3.
b) Find the capacitance that when connected in parallel with the load will raise
the load power factor to unity.
c) What is the equivalent impedance of the load in (b)?
d) Find the average power dissipated in the line when the capacitive reactance is
connected across the load.
e) Express the power loss in (d) as a percentage of the power loss found in (a).
