Apparent Power
The product of the root mean square (RMS) voltage and current in an AC circuit, measured in Volt-Amperes (VA), representing the combination of true power and reactive power.
Series RC
A circuit configuration that features a resistor (R) and a capacitor (C) connected in sequence along a single loop, affecting the circuit's overall impedance.
