No, as 100% efficiency is not possible.
AnswerYes, it occurs at resonance. That is, when a circuit's inductive reactance is exactly equal to its capacitive reactance. This can be achieved by adjusting the frequency of the supply until resonance is achieved. Incidentally, power factor has nothing to do with 'efficiency'.
A power factor of one means that the current and voltage waveforms across the load are in phase. This happens only when the load is pure resistance.
Power Factor = KVA/KW. This has no unit. Its value is always 1 or less.
ratio between true power and apparent power is called the power factor for a circuit Power factor =true power/apparent power also we conclude PF=power dissipated / actual power in pure resistive circuit if total resistance is made zero power factor will be zero
In an AC system power is equal to Voltage x Current x Power factor. Power factor is not constant and depends on the type of the load. Ideal value of the Power factor is 1, where as practically remains less then 1.
when voltage n current r in same phase(it happens when load is resistive) ,the power factor which denoted by "fi" is 1 .this condition is known as unity power factor
Unity power factor has a value of 1.0. This means the current and voltage waveforms are in phase. This is only possible if the net load is non-reactive (resistive). If the load is either capacitively or inductively reactive, the power factor will be other than unity. If an inductively reactive load such as a motor is offset by a capacitively reactive load such as a PF correction capacitor, it is possible to acheive a net load that has unity power factor. Some loads, such as resistance heaters, are intrinsically non-reactive, and present a unity power factor.
not possible. power factor is an cosine angle between current and voltage...
yes, it is possible. in fact in power systems all the generators do not run with same power factor.
The power factor measures the phase difference between a current and a voltage waveform. Power factor ranges from zero to one. A power factor of 1 is for a pure resistive load. Power factor decreases for loads like motors with high inductance. Power factor comes into play when determining the watts used by a device. Watts = Volts x Amps x PF. So ideally for efficiencies sake, you want to keep the PF as close to one as possible.
Of the 'balanced' what?
The power factor depends on the properties of the load, and if any power factor correction is done it has to happen at the load, so that the current in the transmission lines is reduced. Correcting the power factor at the sending end fails to address the problem.
Per factor is 1 when reactive power is zero.
Power factor can also be equal to 1. Power is greatest when voltage and current are in phase; the "power factor" is used to specify how much less the power is, compared to the product of voltage x current, if they are not.

Incandescent lamps are nearly pure resistive loads with a power factor of 1
