 | | KEY TERMS: alternating current, ac source, voltage amplitude, current amplitude, phasors, phasor diagram, phase angle, inductive reactance, capacitance reactance, root-mean-square (rms) current, power factor, resonance, resonant angular frequency, transformer. |
 | | The phasors are rotating at an angular speed of: |
 | | Phasor diagrams are easier to draw than the sinusoidal curves, and are easier to use to calcite phase angles. |
