Question
An inductive reactance of 8 ohms is connected in parallel
with a capacitive reactance of 18 ohms; this combination
is then connected in series with a variable resistance. For
what value of resistance will the power factor be 0.5, and
what current and power will the circuit take if impressed
enf is 118 volts.
