A 3-phase, 11 kV, 10 MVA synchronous generator is connected to an inductive load of power factor (√3/2) via a lossless line with a per-phase inductive reactance of 5Ω. The per-phase synchronous reactance of the generator is 30Ω with negligible armature resistance. If the generator is producing the rated current at the rated voltage, then the power factor at the terminal of the generator is _______.
A
0.63 lagging
B
0.87 lagging
C
0.63 leading
D
0.87 leading

Correct : b) 0.87 lagging
