A single-phase, 230 V, 50 Hz induction motor has a main winding impedance of ZM = (6 + j8) Ω. A capacitor is connected in series with the auxiliary winding to make its current lead the main winding current by 90°. The auxiliary winding resistance is 10 Ω and its inductive reactance is 15 Ω. What is the required capacitive reactance?
