| Mar 5 at 4:25 | comment | added | Simon Fitch | @brye Yeah, it's because capacitor voltage is not in phase with source voltage. Therefore, neither is resistor voltage in phase with source voltage. I say it's difficult to envisage, honestly, I have trouble with this too, inuitively. But - I do have one last thing to say, which may help, and which I'll add to my answer. | |
| Mar 5 at 4:14 | comment | added | brye | Appreciate the detailed answer. Regarding your last point, about the resistor peak current not coinciding with the peak source voltage. Any idea why that is? | |
