A linear electrical load draws 11 A at a 0.72 lagging power factor./1 153. When a capacitor is connected, the line current dropped to 122 A and the power factor improved to 0.98 lagging. Supply frequency is 50 Hz. a. Let the current drawn from the source before and after introduction of the capacitor be 11 and 12 respectively. Take the source voltage as the reference and express 11 and 12 as vector quantities in polar form. b. Obtain the capacitor current, IC = 12 - 11, graphically as well as using complex number manipulation. Compare the results. c. Express the waveforms of the source current before (11(t)) and after (12(t)) introduction of the capacitor in the form Im sin(2лft + 0). Hand sketch them on the same graph. Clearly label your plots. d. Analytically solve i2(t) – i1(t) using the theories of trigonometry to obtain the capacitor current in the form, ¡C(t) = ICm sin(2πft + OC). Compare the result with the result in Part b.
