Effective or RMS value (Power)

We began the day with effecive and RMS values for power.  Here we plugged in power to solve for Irms.

Apparent power and power factor where S= VrmsIrms and P=VrmsIrmscos(thetav-thetai)

An example solving for apparent power and the power factor.

More notes introducing the power phasor with real power and reactive power that being the imaginary power.
