Obtain the overall impedance for the following cases a P 10
Obtain the overall impedance for the following cases: (a) P = 1000 W, pf = 0.8 (leading), V_rms = 220 V (b) P= 1500 W, Q = 2000 VAR (inductive), I_rms = 12 A (c) S = 4500 60 degree VA, V = 120 45 degree V
Solution
a) p=1000 watts.
power factor=0.8 leading
v=220 volts.
we know
p=vicos theta=1000
220*i*cos theta=1000
220*i*0.8=1000
i=1000/(220*0.8)=5.68 ampss.
z=v/i=220/5.68=38.72 ohms.
b) from the power triangle
s^2=p^2+q^2
s^2=(1500)^2+(2000)^2
s=2500
s=v*i=2500
v*12=2500
v=208.33 volts.
z=v/i=208.33/12=17.36 ohmss.
c) s=4500<60 va
v=120<45 volts.
s=v*i=4500<60
120<45*i=4500<60
i=37.5<15 amps.
z=v/i=(120<45)/(37.5<15)=3.2<30 ohms.
