Q6. (a) The capacitor-start induction run motor has a much higher starting torque than the resistance split-phase motor. Explain (6)

(b) A 100 KVA, 2400/240 V, 50 Hz, 1-phase transformer has no- load current of 0.64 A and a core loss of 700 W, when its high voltage side is energized at rated voltage and frequency. calculate the two components of no-load current. If this transformer supplies a load current of 40 amp at 0.8 lagging power factor at its low voltage side, determine the primary current and its power factor. Ignore leakage impedance drop. (10)
