You are an electrician working in an industrial plant. You discover that the problem with a certain machine is a defective capacitor. The capacitor is connected to a 240-volt AC circuit. The information on the capacitor reveals that it has a capacitance value of 10 mF and a voltage rating of 240 VAC. The only 10-mF AC capacitor in the storeroom is marked with a voltage rating of 350 WVDC. Can this capacitor be used to replace the defective capacitor? Explain your answer.
You are working in an industrial plant. You have been instructed to double the capacitance connected to a machine. The markings on the capacitor, however, are not visible. The capacitor is connected to 560 volts and an ammeter indicates a current of 6 amperes flowing to the capacitor. What size capacitor should be connected in parallel with the existing capacitor? What is the minimum AC voltage rating of the new capacitor? What is the minimum DC voltage rating of the new capacitor? What is the minimum KVAR size that can be used in this installation?
You find that a 25-F capacitor connected to 480 VAC is defective. The storeroom has no capacitors with a 480-VAC rating. However, you find two capacitors rated at 50 F and 370 VAC. Can these two capacitors be connected in such a manner that they can replace the defective capacitor? If yes, explain how they are connected and why the capacitors will not be damaged by the lower voltage rating. If no, explain why they cannot be used without damaging the capacitor.

In the workshop, when manufacturing an inductor, a technician winds 100 turns of a fine conductor onto a large iron ring and leaves it ready for testing. The next day, another technician comes and inadvertently coils 100 more laps with another fine conductor in the opposite direction. Thinking of having two identical coils in parallel, they connect the terminals of the two in parallel and feed both with the same source. If the same current, I0, flows through the two coils, and we draw an Ampere loop through the center of the ring. Choose the one from the following options. Select one: a. The net current within the Ampere loop is 100 I0 . b. The net current within the Ampere loop is zero. c. The magnetic flux in the ring is going to be twice that of a single coil. d. The net current within the Ampere loop is 200 I0 . show solving steps!!!
