Problem

A 50 Ω50\,\Omega resistor is to be operated from a 200 V200\,\text{V}, 50 Hz50\,\text{Hz} mains with its power factor raised to 0.80.8 leading by connecting a capacitor in series. The approximate value of the required capacitance is a) 50 μF50\,\mu\text{F} b) 85 μF85\,\mu\text{F} c) 120 μF120\,\mu\text{F} d) 8.5 μF8.5\,\mu\text{F}
