In the chapter we shall develop a method for representing a sinusoidal forcing function or a sinusoidal response by a complex number called a phasor transform,or simply a phasor. By working with phasors we shall effect a truly remarkable simplification in the steady state sinusoidal analysis of general circuits
In the chapter we shall introduce the study of circuits characterized by a single energy-storage element--a capacitor or a inductor. It will be shown that the equations describing such a circuit may be put in a form involving an unknown variable and its first derivative. Such an equation is referred to as a first-order differential equation, thus we shall refer to circuits which contain only a single energy-storage element as first-order circuits
A prolapse is a downward or forward displacement of one of the pelvic organs from its normal location. *A variety of terms are used to describe female genital prolapse. *A cystocele is a downward displacement of the bladder. *A cystourethrocele is a cystocele that imcludes the urethra as part of the prolapsing organ complex
