"you think i'm saying wrong things to metropolis?"
That's why I butted in, yes.
My only complaint was using the term "power" in your def. of Z.
Only reactance and resistance is directly involved, IMO.
You keep defending the use of power in the definition![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Power is important when considering the pratical implications of impedance.
You are right to point this out.
"impedance Z is the resistance on AC"
Fine! Leave the def. at reactance and resistance.
"connecting low Z output to high Z input it is called bridging and
insures good match between the two of them... meaning less stress to the source,
low distortion etc."
"insures good match" is slightly confusing or misleading semantic-wise.
Here is a page that explains it all better than we have, IMO![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Impedance FAQ
Please don't misunderstand me, I know you know a lot about impedance.
I just did not agree that power should be in the def. of it.
That's all. ok? Perhaps I'm wrong.
