The Basic Elements and Phasors

The response of the basic R, L, and C elements to a sinusoidal voltage and current will be examined in this chapter, with special note of how frequency will affect the opposing characteristic of each element. Phasor notation will then be introduced to establish a method of analysis that permits a direct correspondence with a number of the methods, theorems, and concepts introduced in the dc chapters.
