Solve this:
Dear Student,
The actual derivation involves a second order differential equation involving complex variables. Here I am giving you a brief result of that. Z is the impedance of the ckt.
And the phase angle,
Current is given by,
Instantaneous current,
And Power factor
Maximum power factor ( means maximum power consuming ) when it is one
in above case
Power factor has R and Z , and R and Z can not give any negative value .
hence minimum value of power factor is 0 when circuit is purely capacitive .
Regards
