Some parameters are given related to your student ID numbers. These are:V1 = XXX V (first 3 numbers, e.g. 170 V (RMS)) f1 = XXX Hz (assume that your last number is ‘y’, then f1 = (y+1)*10 Hz, e.g. if y=2 then f1=(2+1)*10=30Hz)1) A single-phase load has an active power of P = 2 kW at V1 V @f1Hz and the power factor is cosφ = 0.75. This motor iscompensated to cosφ = 0.85 using a parallel capacitor (the load is modelled as series RL). Determine:a. Reactive power and apparent power before compensation using power factorb.
