It expresses with circuits containing resistances and capacitances the amount of opposition to the flow of current, in a manner analogous to the notions of resistance and reactance in circuits containing, respectively, resistors and capacitors only. The presence of the phase difference between voltage and current makes impedance a 'complex number', containing a modulus part and an angle part. If, for the present, we restrict ourselves to the modulus, then \vj^j,\=I\Z\ {) and on comparing this with the expression for y^^ above or, remembering that capacitive reactance, X^ = lIcoC \z\ = {R' + {Xc)'yi^ The network we have been discussing is an extremely simple one, yet the analysis has yielded a square root term, and square root terms are notoriously tiresome in calculations. It is not hard to see that in the analysis of more elaborate resistance and capacitance networks, the equations are liable to become very unwieldy. There is an analytical technique which we shall use 32
