Answer:
Reactive power is 1.152 VARs
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that in a parallel circuit,[tex]E_{T}=240V[/tex],R=47kΩ and [tex]X_{L}[/tex]=50kΩ.
reactive power means the dissipating power resulting from inductive and capacitive loads measured in volt-amperes reactive(VAR).Since our circuit has inductor only, reactive power will be power dissipated from inductor.
Current through inductor=[tex]\frac{E_{T}}{X_{L}} =\frac{240}{50}=4.8[/tex]milli amps=0.0048 A
Reactive power = (current flowing through inductor)X (Voltage across inductor)
Hence reactive power = 0.0048 X 240=1.152 VARs
