When connected to a 120-V (rms), 60-Hz power line, a load absorbs 5 kW at a lagging power factor of 0.82. Find the value of capacitance necessary to raise the pf to 0.98. (You can ignore the source impedance while doing the calculations. Keep in mind that the source impedance is taken as very small and therefore you can neglect the small amount of real power consumed by the source impedance)
