Question

The voltage 'V' and current 'A' across a load are as follows.

V(t) = 100 sin(ωt)

i(t) = 10 sin(ωt - 60°) + 2 sin(3ωt) + 5 sin(5ωt)

The average power consumed by the load, in W, is___________.

Only the fundamental current contributes average power because different harmonics are orthogonal. Therefore P=(100/√2)(10/√2)cos60°=250 W.
