Two impedances Z1 = (10+j5) and Z2 = (8+j6) are connected in parallel across a voltage of V = 200+j0. Calculate the circuit current, power factor, and reactive power.
Added by Jeanette B.
Step 1
To find the total impedance of two impedances in parallel, we use the formula: \[ \frac{1}{Z_{total}} = \frac{1}{Z_1} + \frac{1}{Z_2} \] Given \(Z_1 = 10 + j5\) and \(Z_2 = 8 + j6\), we first find the reciprocals of \(Z_1\) and \(Z_2\). Show more…

Two impedances Z1 and Z2 are connected in parallel. The first branch takes a leading current of 16 A and has a resistance of 5 Ω, while the second branch takes a lagging current at 0.8 power factor. The applied voltage is 100+j200 V and the total power is 5 kW. Find branch impedances, total circuit impedance, branch currents, and total circuit current.
