, Problem 2.1 Statement:

Formulate an equation for the vector loop illustrated in Figure P.2.1. Consider that vector
Vj

always lies along the real axis.




Figure P.2.1 Vector loop (3 vectors where changes length) in 2-D complex space
Vj

Problem 2.1 Solution:

Taking the clockwise sum of the vector loop in Figure P.2.1 produces the equation

V e1i 1
V2ei 2
Vj 0.

When expanded and separated into real and imaginary terms, the vector loop equation
becomes

V1 cos 1 V2 cos 2 Vj 0
.
V1 sin 1 V2 sin 2 0

Problem 2.2 Statement:

Formulate an equation for the vector loop illustrated in Figure P.2.2. Consider that vector
Vj
