I am really sorry for that. Please tell me where do i post if i have a problem and I'm not able to attempt like i don't even know how to begin solving it. Where should those questions go?

Have you learned about AC circuits?
Yes...I have understood this question. Would love to hear a new explanation if you have one. Thank you :)
 
Dunno. We are explicitly forbidden to help if no attempt is made by the poster. It also is useless to give someone an answer that he/she doesn't understand at all (complex numbers, differential equations etc require some previous knowledge from a course or textbook). We can't start at primary school level.
Oh well, Ersbeth was faster.

WHAT have you learned about AC circuits that might be useful herre ? 2. relevant equations !
