Basic circuits analysis

Alternating voltage is generated by rotating a coil in a stationary magnetic field. It can also be generated by rotating a magnetic field within a stationary coil.

GENERATION OF ALTERNATING VOLTAGE AND CURRENT

Alternating voltage is generated by rotating a coil in a stationary magnetic field. It can also be generated by rotating a magnetic field within a stationary coil. Rotating field method is the mostly used one for generation of alternating voltage. Alternating supply is invariably used for domestic and industrial applications.

One has to pay more attention to solve AC circuits. It is because the voltages and currents in AC circuits are represented with phasors. For arithmetical operations (like multiplication, division etc) both magnitude and angle must be considered. As it is a tedious process, the student should have more patience.
