How capacitor and resitor in a circuit effect the phase of input voltage?

A capacitor and a resistor has no effect on the supply voltage; however, this particular load combination will cause the load current to lead the supply voltage by some angle termed the 'phase angle'.


Why variable voltage and variable frequency control is used instead of variable voltage?

variable voltage control has some limitations as you decrease the voltage corresponding phase current will increase lead to increase of flux which lead to saturation of motor core and heating of motor to make flux constant and vary speed of motor v/f ratio need to be maintained constant
