Your talking about the "higher current" than without the capacitor part?
Yeh I realized it was wrong. I have no idea what I saw on the programme last night! ha.
But yeh I see your point also.
Actually if using a square wave then it does reinforce, so it must have been that that I was...
Completely forget what I just said. I tried to make it happen on the programme but now its not doing it and is fitting the equations. ha. I have NO idea how it happened last night.
sophiecentaur, could I have your opinion on my explanation in #162 and #166.
To me it seems all correct and if...
Im not to sure what exactly you mean / the point I am missing.
But the resistance IS NOT only to change the magnitude. It effects the phase also.
Higher the friction the less max force is generated by the spring and for the max force in the spring to equal the source force it would happen later...
haha that's how I like to look at things also.
Theres nothing I don't really "get" in your last post.
Would it be ok if you replayed to my post and comment on what I've said? that way it will help tie the bits together.
But your post seems to be pretty fine.
@I_am_learning
Sorry I was actually writing a reply and then got a bit distracted by some other posts. But I am not trying to run away from it.
Sinusoidal force is fine.
So as it turns the force goes up and down. It has to overcome the friction, and anything left is transferred into the...
Ive just checked that picture and I realized I made a big mistake. The last battery was meant to be an AC source. (thats why there's an AC voltage graph underneath it)
The 2V is the max voltage the cap can get with that X frequency. Basically to represent a high frequency so the cap doesn't...
Hey DailyDose,
Thanks for your input. I am glade someone sees things the way I do.
It seems like you might be thinking I am stuck on what phase means as a definition?
I know it means the time difference / difference between cycles, between the same points on different waves.
But what I am...
Im not looking for an analogy to answer my question. However they might help get there.
@sophiecentaur
I think you think I am looking for an analogy, and this is where your saying I can't find one because everyone might have their own different ones...and that even if it gets them through...
Like I said that post was only to explain the opposition side of things. The modulus of the total impedance complex number. (Is this what you mean when its only half of it?)
I do understand that. However the only reason I used the word "force" was just to make it a bit clearer (which didnt...
I don't understand what your saying is wrong.
Your saying Instantaneously there is zero potential difference between A and B.
So that means there is no potential difference across the capacitor to oppose the source voltage.
Which is what you said.
Can you explain what isn't compatible?
Ok, I think we need to have a bit of structure here haha.
It seems like there's bit of information coming in from all over the place but what we need to do is work through it step by step, and I am positive doing it this way we will be able to come up with an explanation together.
Like...
I don't really understand that line fully,
Sounds like there's something missing. But I am trying to fix my problem and come up with an explanation myself so yes I am putting effort in. I can't expect to just sit here and hope someone just comes up with it. Its already shown that is going to...
If we where to make a wireless phone call to a planet 1 light year away the lag/time delay would be 1 year.
They would have to wait 1 year to hear what we say today.
But if we used a long (long is an understatement) piece of wire connecting the 2 phones, what kind of delay would there be...
Studiot, Did you see my last post? I don't know if you perhaps missed it as you was typing out your post still when I had submited mine...
Anyway.
For your example...
Would the output have 0 phase different? As current is the same throughout the circuit. You couldn't have 2 different currents...
