An industrial firm has two electrical loads connected in parallel across the power source. Power is supplied to the firm at 4000

V rms. One load is 30 kW of heating use, and the other load is a set of motors that together operate as a load at 0.6 lagging power factor and at 150 kVA. Determine the total current and the plant power factor.

Answer:

I = 27.65A < 40.59°

PowerFactor = 0.76

Explanation:

Current on the heating load is:

I1 = 30KW / 4KV = 7.5A < 0°

Current on the inductive load:

I2 = (150KVA*0.6) /4KV = 22.5A  with an angle of acos(0.6)=53.1°

The sum of both currents is:

It = I1 + I2 = 7.5<0° + 22.5<53.1° = 27.65<40.59°

Now, the power factor will be:

pf = cos (40.59°) = 0.76

Challenge! A marshmallow is dropped from a 5-meter high pedestrian bridge and 0.83 seconds later, it lands right on the head of
WINSTONCH [101]

a₀).  You know ...
         -- the object is dropped from 5 meters
             above the pavement;
         --  it falls for 0.83 second.

a₁).  Without being told, you assume ...
         -- there is no air anyplace where the marshmallow travels,
             so it free-falls, with no air resistance;
         -- the event is happening on Earth,
            where the acceleration of gravity is  9.81 m/s² .

b).  You need to find how much LESS than 5 meters
       the marshmallow falls in 0.83 second.
    
c).  You can use whatever equations you like.
       I'm going to use the equation for the distance an object falls in
       ' T ' seconds, in a place where the acceleration of gravity is ' G '.

d).  To see how this all goes together for the solution, keep reading:


The distance that an object falls in ' T ' seconds
when it's dropped from rest is

                                 (1/2 G) x (T²) .

On Earth, ' G ' is roughly  9.81 m/s², so in 0.83 seconds,
such an object would fall

                               (9.81 / 2) x (0.83)² = 3.38 meters .

It dropped from 5 meters above the pavement, but it
only fell 3.38 meters before something stopped it.
So it must have hit something that was

                         (5.00 - 3.38)  =  1.62 meters

above the pavement.  That's where the head of the unsuspecting
person was as he innocently walked by and got clobbered.
