Question

For circuits used for transporting electric power , a low power factor implies large power loss in transmission. Explain.

Answer 1

For electric power transmission the power received at the far end is VICos∅ . Now Cos∅ is the power factor .So its quite clear lower the power factor lower will be the electric power transmission and hence more will be the losses.

Answer 2

As,  P = Erms X Irms cosɸ  To transport a given power P, low power factor (means cosɸ) means larger current through the transmission line, resulting in large line power loss I2R Hope it Will help  Please Mark it as brainliest.
