Questions
First, let's draw the simplified circuit diagram:

Load voltage, Vload = 245 V
To calculate the current flowing into the load, we can use the following formula:
∣Zcable∣=0.102+0.252Ω
And calculate the angle of the impedance:
Next, calculate the apparent power:
S=Vload×I∗
Psource=Re(S)
And the reactive power is given by the imaginary part of the apparent power:
Calculate the impedance phase angle θ:
θ=arctan(0.100.25)=1.190rad
Calculate the active power Psource and reactive power Qsource:
Psource=Re(S)=224.60W
Reactive power supplied by the source: 239.32 VAR239.32VAR
