so we’re not gonna talk about how this man is teaching us voltage with little Pickachu in the corner 🥺

[@ComputerEngineeringCPE]

Awesome explanation, thank you for going over each step and not skipping anything!

[@MichelvanBiezen]

You're very welcome!

[@aniketlahiri8296]

Thankoyu very much.. I was trying to understand it for 2 days but no teacher was so clear like you sir during explanation.. U helped me.. Thxx

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Glad this was helpful.

[@meghanamr3876]

I have gone through many videos but I was not able to grasp it.Only with this video,I have got grip on this topic.Really helpful.

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Glad you found these videos.

[@tempestandacomputer6951]

Best explanation I have seen with clear use of formulas for each step.

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Glad it was helpful!

Thank you.

[@vidarfreyr]

Really good explanation. Just the practicalities, and no BS. Thanks a million!

[@MichelvanBiezen]

You're welcome!

[@irritantno9]

You are my surrogate professor. It's so clear when you explain it.

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Thank you for your comment. Glad to help.

[@dtoogentle]

Thank you so much Sir, i couldnt get this when i saw it in my textbook not on till i watched this life saving video. once again thanks

[@leonvisters5348]

Great video. Do we need to to add 180 after finding the phase angle thru tan-1?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Typically the phase angle is expressed in values of cos between -90 and + 90 degrees.

[@giftkabwe4281]

youre really the best, your explanations are precise and accurate

[@elta8064]

Thanks for the explanation. And I just wanted to ask what would we do if we had different frequencies in the different voltages. would you just take the average ?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Then you would use the superposition principle. Use each frequency to calculate the current and voltage and then add them (making sure you take the different phases into account)

[@arnavverma8622]

Sir your explanation is marvelous 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@poojashedge1857]

Thank you sir your explanation process is too good 🙏 now I able to solve numericals like this...

[@mortenandersen6108]

Fantastic explanation!!

[@TheSunnyprakash]

Excellent.It's very helpful to below average student.Thanks a lot Sir.

[@DREAM-lt7cq]

Thanks sir.. love from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Thank you and welcome to the channel!

[@Luke-vo1sf]

Thank you, this makes so much more sense than what my professor did

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Glad it was helpful! 🙂

[@albertfiagbor52]

Please so always when the phase angle is negave you have to convert it to positive first before it can be added when it's sine function we should always add 180 and when its's cosine function we should substract 90?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Not necessarily. Wen you start adding voltages and currents with phase angles it sometimes makes it easier to add or subtract 180 degrees with either the sine or cosine functions. (Usually we use the cosine function).

[@bowlineobama]

Can you also convert it to Sine as well and work the same way? Why did you chose Cosine?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Cosine is used by convention, but yes, you could use the sin function.

[@aaagwz]

Its today that I appreciate more the application of complex numbers.

[@kunalgaikwad2758]

Thank you sir love from India🇮🇳🇮🇳

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Thank you and welcome to the channel! 🙂

[@Hot-Introduction]

It's probably too late to ask but Can we directly convert -sin(wt-30) to positive cos by adding -90 -sin(wt -30-90) =cos(wt-120) Instead of converting it to positive sin and then to positive cos.

[@MichelvanBiezen]

You can do it in any order. It is always a good idea to check. Is - sin(30) = + cos (30 - 90) ?

[@10.gauravjungkarki69]

damn this is so simple but all my professor did, was made this thing complicated. thank you so much sir!!

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Yes, once you see it, it becomes pretty straight forward :)

[@miguellopes9959]

Able to explain a matter that I couldn't perceive until now, thank you

[@MichelvanBiezen]

You are welcome. Glad you found our videos. 🙂

[@mithunroy65]

Thank you, sir. Your every tutorials is very important to me but your video scene isn't clear. so, please please please make it clear so that We can see easily and learn more and more from your tutorials.

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Are newer videos are filmed in high definition, and there is a setting on KZbin when you watch videos, that can increase the resolution of your screen.

[@unfinishedgenius3791]

Soo helpful, thank you.

[@xfpollux3218]

May I know why must it be converted into cos but not sin? or it can only be solved by cos?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Cosine is used by convention since it is easier to calculate the resistance and reactance using the cosine.

[@ikshvaku_allegiance4015]

Sir why do we need to divide Vmax by sqrt(2) when converting from time to phasor

[@MichelvanBiezen]

The average voltage is equal to Vmax / sqrt(2), since the voltage is a sin curve. That is the mathematical result of the relationship between the average value and the peak value of a sin curve.

[@theshadypersonify]

can someone please explain why I get 12.3906i when I plug this into my ti89 calculator keeping the sin and cos fucntions with i kept on the sins? Like this sqrt( (10cos(60) + 20cos(45))^2 + ((i20sin(45))+(i10sin(60)^2 )

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Do you have your calculator in radian mode instead of degree mode?

[@Markidoo]

will there be a case wherein we will use V_maxsin(wt+theta) instead of V_maxcos (wt+theta)?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Traditionally we always use the cos. But we could use the sin and mathematically that is not incorrect.

[@ranbirrobin3940]

thank you so much sir...I found your tutorial very helpful for me

[@MichelvanBiezen]

You are most welcome

[@carllacoste5824]

why the book that I bought is not the same as your answer. The answer to that practice problem is not the same as your answer. Is there some kind of typo in the book?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Probably either myself or the book made an error. (most likely me, although viewers tend to be quick to point out the error).

[@faizmalik9210]

Using different labels for the voltages in the time domain and in the phasor domain would greatly help minimise the confusion.

[@rjh567]

Liked and subscribed! Excellent explanation sir.

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Thank you. Glad you found our videos. 🙂

[@rebornthereborned]

Can I take your class? >.

[@UTube4075]

Thank You very much sir, May God Bless You

[@thedillestpickle]

Does it matter if we get an angle greater than plus or minus 90? Do we then subtract 180 degrees and use that value?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Typically that is what is done.

[@notSavant]

What about A*cos(wt)+B*sin(wt)=C*cos(wt+phi)?

[@swedensur9106]

excellently explained and so straight forward. so much better than my lecturer, also love the bowtie!

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Thank you. Glad you found our videos. 🙂

[@ralphramsey82]

Thanks for taking the time to explain this.

[@PTNLemay]

My teacher often writes the phasor form as something like (taking the 10 sin(...) function from your example) 10*e^(j*30). Is there a term for this other kind of phasor that uses the Euler number and imaginaries? I think it's something like the "analytic representation" of the phasor, but I'm not sure.

[@MichelvanBiezen]

It is just a different mathematical representation, but it means the exact same thing.

[@PTNLemay]

@@MichelvanBiezen I see, thank you

[@ronaldrosete4086]

Is it posible to add 2 phasors with different frequencies? New subscriber here.

[@MichelvanBiezen]

You would typically not expect to see that in a circuit, but yes, it can be done. Here is a video (on mechanical waves) that describes how to add them. Physics - Mechanics: Mechanical Waves (11 of 21) The Interference of Waves (Same Direction) in the playlist: PHYSICS 19 MECHANICAL WAVES

[@ronaldrosete4086]

@@MichelvanBiezen Wow. Thanks a lot. You deserve millions of subscribers. I wish I could be as smart as you. Thanks again!

[@sangeethars8326]

Why we took them in cosine form? Could I use sine form?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

This is just an exercise to add these two voltages together. From a mathematical perspective it doesn't make any difference. From a convention, we tend to use cosine

[@savidudasanayaka4759]

Thank you so much. Definitely subscribing and suggesting you to my friends.❤️❤️❤️

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Thank you. We appreciate the support.

[@The.Talent]

If I wanted to represent the resultant as in the form of Asin(wt+phi) could I then simply convert what you have shown by adding 90degrees to phi? i.e. Acos(wt+phi) = Asin(wt+phi+90)

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Yes you can do it that way.

[@The.Talent]

Thank you so much for a quick reply!

hello, sir. thank you so much for this video! It's really helped meeee thank youu🙏🙏🙏 god bless you always!

[@MichelvanBiezen]

You are very welcome

[@avarun31]

Sir, are we using rotation by j concept and converting the negetive vector v(t) = -10sin(wt-30) to positive vector . Since we multiply by j^2, are we adding 180 degrees and it becomes v(t)=10sin(wt+30+180) = 10sin(wt+210)?

[@丅-k3r]

i have the same question 😥

[@madhavbovilla7363]

I like this very much tq professor

[@MShazarul]

What about addition of two term where one of the term does not have an angle, so how do we calculate the arc tan then? (One term has phi, the other does not)

[@MichelvanBiezen]

It makes no difference. Think of it as an angle of zero. The calculation will be exactly the same.

[@aaagwz]

It's very helpful. Thank you Sir.

Hello Sir when I try this method with my example i just get weird answers for some reason 𝑢1 = 4 ∙ cos(3𝑡 − 1) 𝑢2 = 6 ∙ cos(3𝑡 + 1.1) if anyone could help me that would be appreciated Thanks in advance

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Note that the phase angle needs to be converted to radians (not degrees) and your calculator needs to be in radian mode.

[@otsutsukiboruto8833]

@@MichelvanBiezen Could you explain more please ..

[@anjumzahoor8956]

Can we show how to Add 3 voltages and what if any 1 Voltage does not have an angle with it like V1=10sin(wt) V2=15sin(wt+45) V3=20cos(wt-60)

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Convert each to the real and imaginary parts and then add the real part together and then the imaginary parts. (you are adding 3 instead of 2, but the technique is identical)

[@anjumzahoor8956]

Michel van Biezen but we don't have any angle associated with one voltage what happens to that voltage... That is V1=10sinwt

[@MichelvanBiezen]

The phase angle is zero therefore v1 = 10 + j0

[@JoshuaWGbuah]

Very clear and thanks

[@deepsheth8005]

Awesome😎👍🏻

[@Mbilal019]

a. If v1= -20sin (wt - 600) and v2 = 20sin( wt + 450); find v1 + v2 =?

[@Mbilal019]

Kindly solve this

[@SaqibAli-iq8cv]

Thank you so much

[@preciousa.4384]

-10sin(wt - 30), shouldnt it be -10cos(wt +30) ?, the negative sign in front of Vmax is missing????

[@jegedeprecious7662]

He changed the sign of the amplitude. You need to add 180° to the phase angle before you can change the amplitude's sign

Did you make a mistake with you signs at 1:00? sin(wt-90)= - cos(wt). You should have added 90 degrees to get a positive cosine function. Please verify, Thanks.
