Chapter 3.3, Problem 8P
Problem: A container holds 2 quarts and 4 fluid ounces. The container is now filled with 6 fluid ounces of liquid. How much liquid must be added to the container to make it full? John solved this problem as follows:
So John gave 1 quart and 8 fluid ounces as the answer. Is John right? If not, explain what is wrong with his method, and show how to modify his method of regrouping to make it correct. (Do not start from scratch.)

- Part 1: A linear electrical load draws 1₁ A at a 0.72 lagging power factor. See the table to find ½ for your student ID. 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 I₂ 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 − I₁, graphically as well as using complex number manipulation. Compare the results. c. Express the waveforms of the source current before (į (t)) and after (i2(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 i̟2(t) − i₁ (t) using the theories of trigonometry to obtain the capacitor current in the form, ic(t) = Icm sin(2πft + 0c).
