Textbook Question
Chapter 20, Problem 7PP
A pure capacitive circuit is connected to a 480-volt, 60-Hz power source. An ammeter indicates a current flow of 24 amperes. The circuit current must be reduced to 16 amperes by connecting a second capacitor in series with the first. What is the value of the existing capacitor? What value capacitor should be connected in series with the original capacitor to limit the circuit current to 16 amperes?

- The former expert solved the question, but I didn't understand how he simplified the fractions. A communication satellite is in stationary (synchronous) orbit about the carch (assume altitude of 22.300 statute miles). Its transmitter generates 8.0 W. Assume the transmit- ting antenna is isotropic. Its signal is received by the 210-ft diameter tracking parabo- loidal antenna on the earth at the NASA tracking station at Goldstone, California. Also assume no resistive loss in either antenna, perfect polarization match, and perfect impedance match at both antennas. At a frequency of 2 GHz, determine the: (a) power density (in watts/m²) incident on the receiving antenna. (b) power received by the ground-based antenna whose gain is 60 dB.arrow_forwardDon't use ai to answer I will report you answerarrow_forwardA communication satellite is in stationary (synchronous) orbit about the earch (assume altitude of 22.300 statute miles).
