How many watts are consumed in a circuit having a power factor of 0.2 if the input is 100 VAC at 4 amperes?

Answer: 80 watts


Entry page https://www.gigaparts.net/sweepstakes/

Reading HamStudy.org Section E5 Question D5 https://hamstudy.org/browse/E4_2020/E5D

Quote :
E= 100 V
I= 4 A
Power Factor (PF) = 0.2
How many watts are consumed in this circuit?

The consumption with a power factor of 1.0 would be defined by Ohm's law:
P = E⋅I = 100 V⋅4 A = 400 W
We call this result the Apparent Power, and often refer to it with the symbol S:
S = Papparent = 400 W
To determine the real power, the apparent power needs to be multiplied by the power factor:
PReal = S⋅PF = 400 W⋅0.2 = 80 W

They are repeating the same license examination questions they asked last time so here is a link to the previous sweepstakes

What is the suggested external antenna tuner for the ICOM IC-7300?

Answer: AH-4


Entry page https://www.gigaparts.net/sweepstakes/

GigaParts doesn't have a catalogue page for the AH-4 bur DC Engineering does.
Readinghttps://www.dxengineering.com/parts/ico-ah-4

Of the other choices:
The AH-2 is a whip antenna designed to be used with the AH-4
There is no AH-7300 but there is an AH-730 antenna tuner.
https://www.gigaparts.com/icom-ah...ntrol.html
There is no such thing as an AH-7610.
So by process of elimination the answer must be AH-4 even though GigaParts doesn't carry it.
