Problem

a. (i) A 50 Hz50\,\text{Hz} alternating source is connected to a series circuit. Measurements show that the circuit current crosses zero (from negative to positive) 2.5 ms2.5\,\text{ms} before the source voltage does the same. Calculate the phase angle between the source voltage and the circuit current. b. (ii) State whether the circuit’s power factor is leading or lagging.
