A 15-F AC capacitor is connected in series with a 50 resistor. The capacitor has a voltage rating of 600 WVDC. The capacitor and resistor are connected to a 480-V, 60-Hz circuit. Is the voltage rating of the capacitor sufficient for this connection?
You find that a 25-F capacitor connected to 480 VAC is defective. The storeroom has no capacitors with a 480-VAC rating. However, you find two capacitors rated at 50 F and 370 VAC. Can these two capacitors be connected in such a manner that they can replace the defective capacitor? If yes, explain how they are connected and why the capacitors will not be damaged by the lower voltage rating. If no, explain why they cannot be used without damaging the capacitor.

4. If the capacitive reactance of a parallel R-C circuit is 10 times the resistance value, would the current flow through the capacitor be ten times greater than the current through the resistor? Clearly explain why or why not.
What is the equivalent resistance ?? and what is the total inductance ??
An inductor and a resistor are in series with a sinewave voltage source. The frequency is set so that the inductive reactance is equal to the resistance. If the frequency is increased, then options: Voltage across the inductor= Source Voltage Voltage across the inductor> Voltage across the resistor Voltage across the inductor= Voltage across the resistor Voltage across the resistor > Voltage across the inductor
