A parallel circuit consists of two branches, in one of them there is a resistance of R=50 W, and in the other there is an unknown element. The applied voltage is VT=100 cos(1500t+45º) volts, while the total current is It=12sin(1500t+135º) amps. Find the unknown element and the value of its reactance
