Question: A 6 0 Hz , single phase 1 3 . 8 kV transtormer has a no - load current of 3 . 5 | 8

A60 Hz,single phase13.8kV transtormer has a no-load current of3.5|83A rms.When it is disconnected from the system by opening the circuit breaker, it is found that the transient voltage appearing across the transformer following current interruption is exactly critically darmped. What is the effective capacitance of the transformer?
For the purpose of this question the transformer can be treated as a parallel RLC circuit in which the dissipation in the resistor represents the no-load losses.
