🔍 Key Concepts

• Relationship between voltage and current phase in pure inductive, pure capacitive, and pure resistive AC circuits • Mnemonic phrases like "ELI the ICE man" that describe phase relationships • How adding resistance to inductive or capacitive loads affects the phase difference

💭 Think About

• Think about which type of load causes the magnetic field to store energy and release it later—does that make current lag or lead voltage? • Recall what happens in a purely resistive AC circuit: do current and voltage rise and fall together, or is one delayed? • Compare a pure reactive circuit to a mixed resistive-reactive circuit: will the phase shift be fixed at 90° or somewhere in between?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which type of circuit has current and voltage in phase (no lag or lead). • Identify which element, inductor or capacitor, causes current to lag the applied voltage. • Confirm that adding resistance to a reactive element changes the amount of phase shift from 90°, but not which quantity (current or voltage) leads or lags.
