Hello,
I am going through concept of impedance where it is represented as a complex number.
Same representation is done for AC voltage and current.
I understand that AC signals would need both magnitude and phase representation but I don't
understand why it should be complex representation. For example, why not in a simple 2 dimensional plane
with x,y co-ordinates? In fact, complex representation has sqrt(-1) which has no physical significance ...
Thanks,
