Can someone please offer an alternate solution/explanation for Problem 523?
If I hadn't seen this problem ever before, and suppose it appears for the first time on the exam next week, it would not have dawned upon me that I would have approached this using their solution of drawing out the full-load and half-load current phasor diagrams.
I guess I'm looking for suggestions on solving this from another perspective, if anyone can offer one.
I'm having a hard time trying to understand how they weaved together the principles of AC motor half-load/full-load current draws and power factor.
Thanks!
