a. Explain how sinusoidal voltages and currents are represented as phasor? (4) b. A Coil
of resistance 50 Q and inductance 100 mH is connected in series with a (6) capacitor of
500 BLF is connected across a 230 V, SO Hz ac supply. Find (i) Current through the coil
(ii) Power consumed (iii) Reactive power and (iv) Voltage across the coil. Also draw the
phasor diagram with voltage as the reference vector.
a. Prove the instantaneous power consumed by a pure capacitor is zero. (4) b. A series
LCR circuit which resonates at frequency 500 kHz has L=IOO pH, (6) R=25Q and
C=1000 pF. Determine (i) the Q-factor of the circuit (ii) the new value of C required to
resonate at 500 kHz when the value of L is doubled and the new Q factor.

delta connected system.
The load to a three phase power supply consists of three similar coils connected (6) in star.
The line currents are 25A and the kVA and kW inputs are 20 and 11 respectively. Find (i)
the phase and line voltages (ii) the reactive power input (ili) the resistance and reactance
of each coil.
