"In series-connected ac circuit, the total voltage across the circuit is always equal to the sum of the magnitude (only) of the individual voltage across each element."

 True

 False

 

The power factor is equal to cosine of the phase difference.

 True

 False

 

A leading power factor means that the circuit is predominantly capacitive in nature.

 True

 False

 

"Since most loads are resistive in nature (e.g. motors), improvement of power factor is done by connecting capacitor banks or a synchronous condenser "

 True

 False
