A parallel circuit consists of two branches A and B across a 240V, 50Hz supply. Branch A consists of a coil having a resistance of 10 ohms and inductance of 0.07H and Branch B contains a 10 ohms resistor in series with a 100 micro farads capacitor. Draw the circuit and phaser diagram and calculate a)the current taken by each branch b) the total current taken from the supply and its phase angle c) the power taken by the supply
