Reactive power is opposite to Active power. The vector sum of these two powers is apprant power. So reactive power is vector difference between Apprant power & actual power given by
Reactive power= Root of (difference between squares of apprant & active power).
It is lost power of the system on which power factor depends.
'Reactive power', measured in reactive volt amperes (var), describes the rate at which energy is supplied to, and stored within, a circuit's magnetic and/or electric field(s) and, then, returned to the supply, during every half cycle of alternating current.
Contrast this with 'true power', measured in watts(W), which describes the rate at which energy is permanently expended overcoming a circuit's resistance or through doing work (e.g. by an electric motor delivering energy to its mechanical load).
Reactive power is sometimes described as 'wasted power'; this is a complete misconception, because reactive power is essential, as it is required to establish and maintain a circuit's magnetic and/or electric fields.
The combination (vectorial sum) of true power and reactive power, is called 'apparent power', measured in volt amperes (V.A).
The true power of a circuit is measured using a wattmeter, while apparent power is simply the product of the supply voltage and the load current.
As we know V=IR, by changing the voltages in the two different circuits, we can maintain the same current even we have different resistance.
Current in a purely inductive circuit lags the voltage by 90 degrees. The apparent power in such a circuit will be zero, because the power factor is zero, however, energy will still be transferred, and VARs (Volt-Amps-Reactive) will be non-zero.
Typically they are both. Most are paralleled from the breaker and then serial from each power switch.

Electrons in an active circuit either drift slowly, or just jiggle back and forth in one place.
Advantages in electric circuits : Advantages of using the rheostat in electric circuits is optional as you could just use the dial on the power-supply to vary the voltage (p.d.), and therefore the current. The advantage of using the rheostat is that you can control it to give you nice even numbers for the voltage.

explian the term management? breifly discuss the functions of library management ? 2.what is meant by POSDCORB? Brefly explain ?
i want the details regarding the branch circuits
It is definitely proactive, GE was the leader on the local market, Going overseas was an idea to increase the profit, and benefit from the leadership of GE in the R&D.
In a short answer No. But I can't really explain why.
The difference between proactive and reactive has to do with when the action takes place. Proactive means a preventative action occurs to stop something from happening, reactive means something is done as a response to something that has happened.
explain with the help of diagram how free electron and hole contribute to electric curent
"discuss" usually means: explain breifly what it is say the pros (whats good about it) say the cons (whats bad about it) use some quotes if possible and tie together with a colcluding statement!
Proactive action is self initiated behavior at work place, while reactive action in the response of the complaint/feedback
