Question
Consider a voltage source,
vs(t)=1202-√cos(377t)V,
connected across two loads in
series (vs=v1+v2). If the load
voltmeter RMS readings measure
50V and 88.5V, respectively, with
the voltage of the first load
leading that of the second (by an
angle between 0 and 180
degrees), determine the phases
for v1 and v2. If you also know
that load 1 has PF 0.9 lagging,
compute the PF of load 2.
