The resistor, $\mathrm{R}=12\mathrm{Î\copyright }$

The inductive reactance, ${\mathrm{X}}_{\mathrm{L}}=1.3\mathrm{Î\copyright }$

The RMS value, $\mathrm{Î\mu }=120\mathrm{V}$

The impedance of the air conditioner can be found from resistance, and inductive and capacitive reactance using the corresponding relation. Then using the formula for power, we can find the average rate at which energy is supplied to the appliance.

Formula:

$\mathrm{Z}=\sqrt{{\mathrm{R}}^2+{\left({\mathrm{X}}_{\mathrm{L}}-{\mathrm{X}}_{\mathrm{C}}\right)}^2}$ ….. (1)

Here, X_C is the capacitive reactance.

To find impedance $\left(\mathrm{Z}\right)$use equation (1).

$\mathrm{Z}=\sqrt{{\mathrm{R}}^2+{\left({\mathrm{X}}_{\mathrm{L}}-{\mathrm{X}}_{\mathrm{C}}\right)}^2}$

Substitute known numerical values in the above equation.

$\begin{array}{rcl}\mathrm{Z}& =& \sqrt{{12}^2+{\left(1.3-0\right)}^2}\\ & =& \sqrt{144+1.69}\\ & =& \sqrt{145.07}\\ & =& 12.1\mathrm{Î\copyright }\end{array}$

Hence, the impedance of the air conditioner is $12.1\mathrm{Î\copyright }$.

Define the average rate of energy $\left({\mathrm{P}}_{\mathrm{avg}}\right)$as follow.

$\begin{array}{rcl}{\mathrm{P}}_{\mathrm{avg}}& =& \frac{{\mathrm{Î\mu }}_{\mathrm{RMS}}^2\mathrm{R}}{{\mathrm{Z}}^2}\\ & =& \frac{{\left(120\right)}^2×12}{{\left(12.07\right)}^2}\\ & =& 1.19×{10}^3\mathrm{W}\end{array}$

The average rate at which energy supplied to the appliance is $1.19×{10}^3\mathrm{W}$.
