The steady-state voltage drop between the load and the sending end of the line seen in (Figure 1) is excessive. Suppose that V-4950/0° V (rms). A capacitor is placed in parallel with the 192 kVA load and is adjusted until the steady-state voltage at the sending end of the line has the same magnitude as the voltage at the load end, that is, 4950 V (rms). The 192 kVA load is operating at a power factor of 0.8 lag. Part A Calculate the size of the capacitor in microfarads if the circuit is operating at 60 Hz. In selecting the capacitance, use the value that results in the lowest possible power loss in the line. Express your answer in microfarads to three significant figures. ▸ View Available Hint(s) Avec C= 22.8 Submit Previous Answers X Incorrect; Try Again; 5 attempts remaining Provide Feedback ? F
