okay got another question sorry for all these question , but only way to learn.
2 single phase motors are connected paralell ,total circuit apparent is 3750 VA at a laggin pf of .663, if motor 1 draws 1650 VA at a pf of .483 laggin then the pf of motor 2 will b ?
now i dont want the answer coz im really close to it i just know it.
first off i did.
total true power = apprent X pf
3750 X .663 = 2486.25
and i got reactive power = 2807.32
for Motor 1
true power = aparent x pf
1650 x .483= 796.23
reactive power i got 1445
now i thort i would need to use reactive powers, and 2807(total) - 1445 (m1)
whih got me 1362. and the same deal with apprent powers which got me
2100
so M2 has apparent - 2100
and reactive of 1362.32
then 1362/2100 = .64 pf
now the answer spose to b .778
could u just tell me where and why i went rong not to point out the obvious and im an idiot but u know.
btw i appreciat all this time you put in to helping me.
