Two loads connected in parallel draw a total of 2.4 kW at 0.8 pf lagging from a 120-V rms, 60-Hz line. One load absorbs 1.5 kW a

stealth61 [152]

Answer: a) 0.948 b) 117.5µf

Explanation:

Given the load, a total of 2.4kw and 0.8pf

V= 120V, 60 Hz

P= 2.4 kw, cos θ= 80

P= S sin θ - (p/cos θ) sin θ

= P tan θ(cos^-1 (0.8)

=2.4 tan(36.87)= 1.8KVAR

S= 2.4 + j1. 8KVA

1 load absorbs 1.5 kW at 0.707 pf lagging

P= 1.5 kW, cos θ= 0.707 and θ=45 degree

Q= Ptan θ= tan 45°

Q=P=1.5kw

S1= 1.5 +1.5j KVA

S1 + S2= S

2.4+j1.8= 1.5+1.5j + S2

S2= 0.9 + 0.3j KVA

S2= 0.949= 18.43 °

Pf= cos(18.43°) = 0.948

b.) pf to 0.9, a capacitor is needed.

Pf = 0.9

Cos θ= 0.9

θ= 25.84 °

(WC) V^2= P (tan θ1 - tan θ2)

C= 2400 ( tan (36. 87°) - tan (25.84°)) /2 πf × 120^2

f=60, π=22/7

C= 117.5µf

Find full question attached

Answer:

(b) By including a statement that he or she is licensed by the Board for Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors immediately above the signature line in at least 12 point type on all contracts for services

Explanation:

A PE(professional engineer) licensee must show that he is licensed in order to show and ensure public safety as he is qualified for the job he is handling. The California regulations on professional engineers holds that all professional engineers must be licensed by the board of professional engineers and Land surveyors in order to operate legally as an engineer. The engineer may show licensure through the following options:

The engineer might provide statement to each client to show he is licensed which would then be signed by the client

The engineer may choose to post a wall certificate in his work premises to show he is licensed

The engineer may choose to include a statement of license in a letterhead or contract document which must be above the client's signature line and not less than 12 point type
