Chapter 7. Impedance and Phase Shift

Impedance

Most people find that analyses regarding resistance are fairly easy. Analyses-regarding capacitive reactance aren’t too difficult, because capacitive effects seem to be somewhat intuitive to a lot of people. The effects of inductors are much less intuitive, and people tend to have more problems with them. And then there is impedance.
