      And you don't know the difference between power factor and cos phi ??
      In the 70's pf was equal to cos phi

      @almendronman, shut the f up. While MAD Prof channel is doing an amazing job of visualising these concepts.
      These were all developed and used by millions of ppl for more than a century. Humans are curios, have the capability to read books think and visualise it mentally and build systems. Don’t blame the education system if you are too fucking lazy to put the effort to read books and assimilate it.
      These are taught to every physics major / electrical / electronics engineer and there are amazing books.
      Read Basic Electronics by B Grob, Lectures in physics by RP Feynman or Electronics Devices by Boylsted and Neshlsky.

    I don't care if the comments are bots or not, this piece of content is pure gold.
    prof, i had a dream when i was in school, dream to change The entire education system, when i watch your videos i see my dreams comes true, i can't understand why governments doesn't apply similar kind of educational videos like those, it's clearly not to hard for them, but they would rather stick with a system that expires once the internet became a thing, when we look at the social media apps, we see ten's of experienced scientists working on making their app as attractive to the human mind as possible so that people stays on their website for long long times, the question that i want to ask is "why governments doesn't apply a better educational system when they clearly can?"
    sorry for making it long but that's something that was in my heart from a long time.

    This is the best explaination I have ever seen. Did spot a minor typo error in the formula to calculate the "Reactive Power (Inductive)" at 19:08 in the video. QL=I2XL. When you plugged in the values, you are showing 1.410 volts squared. This should be 1.410 amps squared since the formula is squaring the current and then multiplying by the impedence of 60.319 ohms.
