Announcements

 

I made a mistake in the review lecture to calculate power using the following equations:

 

 

 

 

These above two equations are only correct for special cases. The first one is true only when Z is a pure resistive element. The second one is true only when Z is pure reactive element.

For any regular element with an impedance of R+Xj, the correct equation should be:
