a) We assume that the switch is on. Calculate the reactance values and find the charging current in the circuit below. Is the circuit capacitive or inductive? Show that the voltage across the capacitance can be slightly larger than the source voltage U. (This is called the Ferranti effect and means that we can get a voltage rise beyond overhead lines with small loads. This is mostly relevant at the highest voltage levels. The frequency f is 50Hz, and assume voltage U= √2⋅24kV
