This was very good! One thing though... that negative sign out in front of the tangent operator. I think that instead of indicating a reciprocal, as in 1/tan or something, it's more appropriate to call it the inverse tangent, or perhaps, it means the angle for which the tangent equals what is in the parentheses.

Michael, thank you so much for your videos, this one included. Your presentations and lectures are great. There is a problem, however, at approximately 9:30 into the presentation as Michael describes the tan-1(x) function. Michael states, "tan^-1(x), the reciprocal of the tangent ...." Ooops, that is incorrect. The tan^-1(x) function is NOT the "reciprocal" of the tan(x) function. Both tan^-1(x) and tan(x) are "inverse functions" of each other, completely different than reciprocals of each other. A reciprocal is the "multiplicative inverse" of a quantity. The reciprocal of x is 1/x. Just as the reciprocal of 4 is 1/4. The reciprocal of the tan(x) function therefore, is 1/tan(x); the reciprocal of the tan(x) function is also known as the cotangent(x) function. Let's recognize that tan^-1(x) is the "inverse function" of tan(x). An inverse function, is completely different than a reciprocal. So then, what is an inverse function? We know how to take a number x, entering x into some function, where the outcome is f(x). For instance, let's use the number 4 as our x. We enter 4 into the function (x)^2, and we calculate (4)^2 = 16. We have started with some x, calculated, and obtained an f(x). But what happens if we start with f(x) and we need some function to find x? In this case, we may use the "inverse function" of f(x), known as f^-1(x), to obtain our x. So, lets use our trig example, starting with the tan(x) function. As in the video, if we have some angle x, and calculate the tangent function of angle x, we will obtain some number, tan(x). So let's do that. Let use negative angle -14.0362 and calculate tan(x). We calculate tan(-14.0362) and obtain the number -0.2500. Now, let's start with our number -0.2500, using the "inverse function" of tan(x), a function called tan^-1(x) and also known as arctan(x), to calculate our original angle. Working with the tan^-1(x), we calculate tan^-1(-0.2500), to obtain our angle, -14.0362. We have just used the "inverse function" of tan(x), also known as function tan^-1(x) or arctan(x), to start with some number, with the final goal to obtain an angle. The confusion with reciprocals and inverse functions often stems from confusing the accepted math notation. The reciprocal of x is 1/x. Great. We can also use exponents to represent the quantity 1/x, as x^-1. Just as 1/125 can also be written as 125-1. The reciprocal of tan(x) can be written as 1/tan(x). Using exponents, 1/tan(x) also can be expressed as (tan(x))^-1. Here, the negative exponent ^-1 applies to the entire quantity tan(x). 1/tan(x) is equivalent to (tan(x))^-1. Of course, the reciprocal of tan(x), can be written simply as cotangent(x). In math, we indicate the "inverse function" using a convention that appears like exponential notation, but it is NOT exponential notation! Instead, this notation indicates "inverse function." We may have function f(x). The "inverse function" notation for f(x) is f^-1(x); the ^-1 here is NOT exponential notation, but is simply a convention that indicates the "inverse function" of f(x). The inverse function notation for tan(x) is tan^-1(x). Again, the ^-1 here has NOTHING to do with exponents, it is simply the notation convention that indicates "inverse function" of tan(x). In contrast we can express reciprocals; f(x)^-1 means 1/f(x). Here, the ^-1 is a negative exponent. Likewise, if we have tan(x)^-1, we mean 1/tan(x). The "reciprocal" of f(x) is 1/f(x) or f(x)^-1. The "reciprocal" of tan(x) is 1/f(x) or tan(x)^-1. Choose your preference. So, we use the "inverse function" of tan(x), which is tan^-1(x), to get back to our phase angle. This minor attention to detail in math notation has real meaning. On calculator keys, the trigonometry "inverse functions" are often noted as asin, acos, atan. On some calculator keys, the trigonometry "inverse functions" can sometimes be noted as sin^-1, cos^-1, tan^-1. Whereas on a calculator, should you need to calculate a "reciprocal" of tan(x), you simply calculate 1/tan(x). Time for a coffee break. 73 to all. Many thanks for Michael's excellent work

When we connect the resistor to Ac voltage source there is no phase difference angle in the circuit between current and voltage But when we connect an inductor to the same source the current delays from voltage by 90 phase difference angle because of the self induction in the inductor And when we connect a capacitor to the same source we find that the voltage delays from current by 90 phase difference angle because of charging and discharging process Give the reason

What happens if current or voltage leads? Applications of this
@af7kbfasttrackhamradio504 жыл бұрын
Hi, Ganesh. If current and voltage are out of phase, less power is transferred to the load. In fact, if they are 90 degrees out of phase, no power is transferred at all. The amount of power transferred to the load is calculated by taking the cosine of the phase angle, and that figure is known as the "power factor." In radio, we are concerned with transferring as much power as possible to the transmitting antenna. That is why when we adjust the impedance matching between the transmitter and antenna, we want a purely resistive impedance, with no capacitive or inductive reactance. Power distribution networks typically "see" large inductive loads -- all those inductance motors out there. That has the effect of causing the current to lag the voltage. Power companies correct the phase with large capacitors. Those are a couple of the applications of this important principle.

@af7kbfasttrackhamradio504 жыл бұрын
@@ganeshbhat7613 - in a purely inductive circuit, voltage leads current by 90 degrees. In a purely capacitive circuit, current leads voltage by 90 degrees. Neither of those "pure" circuits exists in the real world -- they are "ideal" circuits, so in the real world, we can never cause the current and voltage to be more than 90 degrees out of phase, because we can't actually even get them to exactly 90. I can't think of a way your example can exist in the real world, since the amount of "out of phaseness" available is only 90 degrees. On paper, the power factor of the situation you describe would be negative 100%, since the cosine of 180 is -1.

If your channel is growing so fast why do you have less than 3000 subscribers after 5 years. Delta between when this video was uploaded and when I watched it.
