In other words, show that the sum of any number of sinusoids of arbitrary amplitude and
phase angle but all of the same frequency is a sinusoid of the same frequency.

5] The average power to the plant shown in accompanying gure is 250 kW and

the power factor is 0.707 lagging. The generator is sinusoidal in waveform and the

rms value is 2300 V. Determine the value of the capacitance C such that the power

factor is 0.866 lagging. Let = 377 radians/sec.

6.A] The gure illustrates the manner in which a wattmeter is connected to a passive
network to measure the average power of the network. Power is sometimes measured in a
three-phase system using the two-wattmeter method. Let two wattmeters and
be connected into a three-phase system such that each has its current coils in a line and
the voltage coils connected from line to line. Show that the method is general and the total
power is the sum of two wattmeter readings.
