In the case of a series LCR AC circuit, what is the power factor if (i) the resistance is far greater than the reactance (ii) the resistance is far less than the reactance? |

Answer» Power factor, cos Φ = \(\cfrac R{\sqrt{R^2+(X_L-X_C)^2}}\) (i) For R >> (XL – XC), cos Φ ≅ 1 (ii) For R >> (XL – Xe), cos Φ ≅ zero. |
