Two loads connected in parallel draw a total of 2.4 kW at a power factor of 0.82 lagging with the first load drawing 1.5 kW at a power factor of 0.70 lagging. If the loads are fed with a voltage of 120 Vrms at a frequency of 60 Hz, the capacitor value needed to increase the power factor of the combined loads to 0.980 lagging is closest to...
