Option 1 : P is false and Q is true
Given that the cylindrical synchronous generator with
Synchronous reactance = XS and
Armature resistance = Ra = 0
Now, the simplified circuit of the synchronous generator looks like as shown below

Case 1: The load is lagging in nature.
The corresponding phasor diagram is

⇒ |V| < |E|
Case 2: The load is leading in nature.
The corresponding phasor diagram is shown below.

⇒ |V| > |E|
- A cylindrical rotor synchronous generator (with Ra = 0) has always positive voltage regulation for lagging p.f. loads i.e. EA > VA
- Whereas it has positive, zero, and negative regulation for leading loads i.e. all cases EA > VA, EA = VA, and EA < VA are possible.
Therefore, statement P is False, and Q is True.
