Synchronous Motor
The synchronous motor is an AC electric type motor where at a steady-state the shaft rotation is synchronized with the supply current variable-frequency. To an integral number of AC cycles, the rotation period is exactly equal. The stator of the motor in…
Question

Question 1. An industrial load consisting of a set of induction motors connected to a 220 V, 60 Hz single phase source consumes 50 kW with a back power factor of 0.8. The power factor will be increased back to 0.95 by connecting a set of capacitors in parallel. For this, calculate the VA value that the connected capacitor will provide.
