What is the value of the resistance when both length and diameter are double?

Doubling the diameter of a circular-section conductor will quadruple its cross-sectional area and, therefore, reduce its resistance by a quarter. Doubling the length of a conductor will double its resistance. So, in this example, the resistance of the conductor will halve.


Relation between active power plus reactive power plus apparent power?

Apparent Power=Active Power+Reactive Power or Active Power=VI Cos(Phase Angle) Reactive Power=VI Sin(Phase Angle) Apparent Power= VI


Power factor formula?

Power factor is defined as the ratio of real power over total power. Total power is the vector sum of real and reactive power.


If a load takes 50 kW at a power factor of 0.5 lagging Calculate the apparent power and reactive power?

If a load takes 50 kW at a power factor of 0.5 lagging calculate the apparent power and reactive power Answer: Apparent power = Active power / Power Factor In this case, Active power = 50 kW and power factor = 0.5 So Apparent power = 50/0.5 = 100 KVA


How does a voltage quadrupler work?

A Voltage Quadrupler would be a DC circuit. A transformer would be used to increase the voltage in an AC circuit. To quadruple the voltage in a DC circuit would consist of (min) 4 resistors. 1 resistor would be directly in parallel with the power source, that is, one side of the R would be connected to one side of the source, and the other side of the R would be connected to the other side of the source. The remaining resistors are configured in a sort of series/parallel with the 1st resistor to increase (ladder fashion) the output voltage. See the related links for a more detailed explntn.
