Relate it to over half vs. just what you need.
What is the formula for calculating power in AC circuits?
Look for the formula that includes cos(φ).
True or False: A higher power factor indicates less efficiency.
Think about what high efficiency means.
An AC motor has a voltage of 240V and draws a current of 10A with a power factor of 0.7. How much active power is being consumed?
Use the power calculation formula with the given values.
Discuss the potential consequences if a business operates with a power factor consistently below 0.5.
