Great, thanks.

Thank you Noha

Why does the sine wave for current and voltage shift left or right when different components are added?

In the Western World where alcohol is allowed, we use the analogy of a Beer Mug (🍺) to discern Active Power, Reactive Power and Apparent Power.
In the Middle East, where Alcohol is not allowed, Coffee is used. (☕). . . . . . Brilliant !!!

[@electricalengineeringplane6620]

True 🤣🤣a great observation 🙏👍

[@ronaldschild157]

The coffee mug analogy also keeps it "Rated: G" for a younger set of learners below legal drinking age.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Hypotenuse does not equal adjacent + opposite. Pythagorean theorem would suggest that S^2=P^2+Q^2. Instead of what you said "S=P+Q".

[@electricalengineeringplane6620]

Thank you first, both you and me are right, because i said S=P+JQ,, so J here means that P and Q are perpendicular which means that S^2=P^2+Q^2,,,,, you would say i'm wrong if i said S=P+Q without j

In power triangle ...where is capacitive power ..Qc

[@electricalengineeringplane6620]

Capacitive reactive power, is just like inductive reactive power but in the opposite direction

Thanks ❤️

I came here confused and left even more confused

[@electricalengineeringplane6620]

First,, Thank you for your comment, what is the point that confused you, i can try to clarify it more

[@sz6555]

​@@electricalengineeringplane6620the explanation of waveforms. The triangle explanation was good and you could have used it to explain that active power is a cosine wane and reactive being a sine wave and the square root of the sum of their squares was apparent power (using pythagoras theorem).

[@sz6555]

Another helpful way would be to begin with explaining what inductive, resistive and capacitve loads are and how their wave would be. I think that would have made a huge difference in the presentation or even separate videos attached

[@electricalengineeringplane6620]

@@sz6555 this is a great idea, i will create a video about what is inductive, resistive and capacitive load, then attach it here,,thank you 😊🙏
