Hello,
We recently learned in mathematics the Laplace transform. But we didn't actually use it to solve circuits yet.
I took things at my own hand and tried to figure out what's the point of Laplace transform. I figured out all that frequency and time stuff. But here is the thing.
If you Laplace transform an equation that describes let's say capacitor(in time domain), you get
I=V*wC-I0*C right?
I see resemblance with impedance and other phasor techniques we used to solve circuits. But where is that imaginary part?
From transform up top. Xc=1/wC. But its missing that "-j" part. How did people get to the equation Xc=-j*1/wC?
