Definitions from the WebPhase AngleDescription:The term "phase angle" refers to the measurement of the displacement between two corresponding points in waveforms or oscillations. It is commonly used in fields such as physics, engineering, and electronics to quantify the relationship between different signals or components. Senses and Usages:Sense 1Definition: The angular difference or displacement between two waveform signals or components. Example: In AC circuit analysis, the phase angle between voltage and current can indicate the power factor. Sense 2Definition: The position of an object or system of objects in relation to a reference point or configuration. Example: The phase angle of a rotating shaft can be used to determine its position within a machine. Sense 3Definition: The angle formed in a cyclical process at any given point in time. Example: The phase angle of a pendulum at its farthest displacement determines its potential energy. Related Products:Explore books and tools related to phase angle on Amazon: | ||||
