Chapter 9 Problem 9.79

Question

At first glance, it may appear from Eq. 9.69 that an inductive load could make the reactance seen looking into the primary terminals (i.e., ) look capacitive. Intuitively, we know this is impossible. Show that Xab can never be negative if XL is an inductive reactance.

Solution

Step 1 of 6)

The first step in solving 9 problem number 79 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: At first glance, it may appear from Eq. 9.69 that an inductive load could make the reactance seen looking into the primary terminals (i.e., ) look capacitive. Intuitively, we know this is impossible. Show that Xab can never be negative if XL is an inductive reactance.
From the textbook chapter Sinusoidal Steady-State Analysis you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
