In a series-parallel circuit, the parallel branches A and B are in series with C. The impedances are ZA = (4 + j3) Ω, ZB = (10 − j7) Ω, and ZC = (6 + j5) Ω. If the voltage applied to the circuit is 200V at 50 Hz, calculate : (a) current IA, IB, and IC; (b) the real, reactive, and apparent powers in each impedance, and (c) the total power factor for the whole circuit.

Question

In a series-parallel circuit, the parallel branches A and B are in series with C. The impedances are ZA = (4 + j3) Ω, ZB = (10 − j7) Ω, and ZC = (6 + j5) Ω. If the voltage applied to the circuit is 200V at 50 Hz, calculate : (a) current IA, IB, and IC; (b) the real, reactive, and apparent powers in each impedance, and (c) the total power factor for the whole circuit. Draw the complete phasor diagram.
