Theory:
Phasor analysis is a useful tool to analyze the sinusoidal steady state behavior of circuits
containing capacitors and inductors. In phasor analysis the information about the frequency of
the applied signal is suppressed and only magnitude and phase are analyzed. This makes sense
since linear circuits (i.e. circuits containing resistors(R), capacitors(C) and inductors (L)) can only
affect the magnitude and phase of the input signal and the frequency of the sinusoid remains
the same throughout the circuit.
