For a power system the admittance and impedance matrices for the fault studies are as follows. $$$\eqalign{ & {Y_{bus}} = \left[ {\matrix{ { - j8.75} & {j1.25} & {j2.50} \cr {j1.25} & { - j6.25} & {j2.50} \cr {j2.50} & {j2.50} & { - j5.00} \cr } } \right] \cr & {Z_{bus}} = \left[ {\matrix{ {j0.16} & {j0.08} & {j0.12} \cr {j0.08} & {j0.24} & {j0.16} \cr {j0.12} & {j0.16} & {j0.34} \cr } } \right] \cr} $$$

The pre-fault voltages are $$1.0$$ $$p.u.$$ at all the buses. The system was unloaded prior to the fault. A solid $$3$$ phase fault takes place at bus $$2.$$

The per unit fault feeds from generators connected to buses $$1$$ and $$2$$ respectively are

A
$$1.20, 2.51$$
B
$$1.55, 2.61$$
C
$$1.66, 2.50$$
D
$$5.00,2.50$$
