Q: How many watts are consumed in a circuit having a power factor of 0.6 if the input is 200VAC at 5 amperes?
A: 600 watts
Question E5 D17 from the study guide
We know that power consumed can be calculated by multiplying the voltage V and the current I and the factor PF.
Power Consumed=V×I×PF=200V×5A×0.6=1000W×0.6=600W

Q: Where is the FTDX101D Manual printed?
A: Japan

Entry page https://www.gigaparts.n
At first I didn't think this was a fair question because you would have to have a printed hard copy and who has that? But the words "Printed in Japan" appear on the last page of the pdf.
Japan would have been a good guess and Spain a possibility. 'South America' is not a county and Hawaii is not known as a manual publishing center.
Q: What is NOT included with the FTDX101D?
A: SMA plug
A sticker is included, but not an SMA plug,

Q: What antenna has no gain in any direction?
A. Isotropic antenna
Question E9 A02 from the study guide
Isotropic antennas are ideal (theoretical) antennas that have equal power in all directions. They are used as references for antenna gain.
The word "isotropic" means "uniform in all orientations/directions".
