In this post we comprehensively discuss how to calculate and solve phase shift and phase difference in AC sinusoidal waveforms, using appropriate formulas. What are Phasors? Phasors analyze AC circuit behavior when frequencies are the same. Combining phasors depends on their relative phase. Sinusoidal waveforms reach max values at π/2 and 3π/2, and zero values […]

Calculating Phasors and Complex Numbers
Now let us try to understand this whole thing from very beginning. We are dealing with AC circuits, right? And in AC, we always have these sinusoidal waveforms that keep changing their magnitude and direction with time. Then to represent both the magnitude and the phase angle of these sinusoidal waveforms, we use something called […]
Calculating Phasor Diagrams and Phasor Algebra?
So in AC systems, we can show the relationship between voltage and current using something called a phasor diagram. This is like a graphical tool to explain how voltage and current are connected with respect to their phase. To make this diagram, we use a reference phasor and a coordinate axis. Now even if the […]
