A single-phase load is supplied by a single-phase volt age source. If the current flowing from the load to the source is 10∠– 150°A and if the voltage at the load terminals is 100 ∠60°V, then the
-
- load absorbs real power and delivers reactive power.
- load absorbs real power and absorbs reactive power.
- load delivers real power and delivers reactive power.
- load delivers real power and absorbs reactive power.
Correct Option: B
V = 100 ∠60°
I = – 10 ∠– 150°C (source to load current) 
P complex power
= VI* =100∠60° 10°– 30° = 1000 ∠30°
= 1000 cos 30° + j 1000 sin 30°
Hence load absorbs both active and reactive power.
