I never understood this, but now, with so many colorful figures, I’ve started to understand.<br><br>I love colorful figures and graphs. Thank you.

Imagine reading all this without illustration....this should be done at univeristy to help student understand it easier.

I’ve known for a long time that AC was a lot more complicated mathematically than DC and that square roots and all that are involved but never came close to thinking I’ll get it one day. But you sir have changed this tonight, and you were just playing thể background. <br><br>Im def bookmarking this to <i>rabbithole</i> later!!!

That's a great video, and it opened my mind to view AC from a different POV. Thanks a lot.

Thank you so much for your very nice video and very clear explanation.<br>I've been searching for a long time for a method other than complex numbers to analyze electrical circuits in forced sinusoidal steady state. The concept of impedance is addressed without complex numbers and therefore has real physical meaning. Your video will interest and help many people who would like to understand the physical principles of electronic circuits such as filters, resonators, and oscillators, but who are stuck or confused by complex numbers.
