Two identical 2000 kVA alternators operate in parallel. The governor of the first machine is such that the frequency drops uniformly from 50 Hz at no-load to 48 Hz at full-load. The corresponding uniform speed drop of the second machine is 50 Hz to 47.5 Hz. What is the maximum unity pf load that can be delivered without overloading either machine

Two identical three-phase Alternators A and B share equally a load of 10 MVA at 33 KV and 80% lagging power factor. The synchronous reactance of each generator is 4 ohms per phase and the armature resistance is negligible. Alternator A has its field excitation adjusted to carry a25 amperes at lagging power factor. What is the current delivered by Alternator B ?
b) Two alternators are connected in parallel to feed a load together. The no-load frequency of the first alternator is 51.5 Hz and its slope is 1MW / Hz. The no-load frequency of the second alternator is 51.0 Hz and its slope is 1MW / Hz. The total power of the load fed by these two alternators is 2.5MW and the power factor is 0.8. Accordingly, at what frequency does this system work and what are the power values transferred to the load by each alternator.
