Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / abdurrahim
Reactive power is part of Apparent power(KVA) which is
useless,oscillation between source to user.And return to
source.
To calculate reactive power,It is a sine factor of the
apparent power.

Answer / rama krishna
Power is defined as the rate of flow of energy past a given
point. In alternating current circuits, energy storage
elements such as inductance and capacitance may result in
periodic reversals of the direction of energy flow. The
portion of power flow that, averaged over a complete cycle
of the AC waveform, results in net transfer of energy in one
direction is known as real power. The portion of power flow
due to stored energy, which returns to the source in each
cycle, is known as reactive power.

reactive power is utilised to produce electric n magnetic
field. . ,wer as active power is used to produce torque n
rotations
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 2 Yes | 3 No |
Answer / kn
Reactive power is not a working power it stored power in the
form of magnetic field and it is also opposing power
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 1 Yes | 2 No |
