Is it possible to power factor more than unity?

Answer Posted / shahid arafat

power factor = cosine of angle between v&I & angle cannot
be less than zero
cos0 = 1 if angle increases p.f will decrese
cos 30=0.8
cos 60=0.5
cos 0=1 there fore p.f cant be less than unity

Is This Answer Correct ?    4 Yes 0 No
