ChrisF replied to the thread Undergrad Mechanism of Energy Conservation in Zero-Amplitude Sum of EM Waveforms.This was incredibly helpful — thank you. The quadrature relationship you described (E and B 90° out of phase, nodes displaced by 1/4... -
ChrisF replied to the thread Undergrad Mechanism of Energy Conservation in Zero-Amplitude Sum of EM Waveforms.That's helpful — so in a standing wave, E and B are in quadrature (90° phase offset) and the energy oscillates between electric and...

ChrisF replied to the thread Undergrad What determines if wave components are independent vs coherent?.Thanks — that makes sense for two waves. But here's what prompted my question: In three-phase electrical systems, the phases are...

Like.
It's simply whether they are in phase or not. If you know they are the same frequency and in phase, then they will "constructively... -
ChrisF replied to the thread Undergrad Mechanism of Energy Conservation in Zero-Amplitude Sum of EM Waveforms."You're right, I shouldn't have said 'remember.' What I meant is that during superposition, each component wave retains its energy and...

ChrisF replied to the thread Undergrad Mechanism of Energy Conservation in Zero-Amplitude Sum of EM Waveforms.This question connects to something I've been working through. Two waves at 180° — complete cancellation, energy seems to vanish...
