Simple AC Circuits, Series RLC Circuits, and Phasors - Complete Review

Physics Ninja review basic AC circuits.  In the first part i look at simple AC circuits containing a power supply and a single component (resistor, capacitor, or inductor).   In each case we calculate the current as a function of time.   We show how to calculate the maximum current and the phase of the current relative to the generator.   In the second part we look at applying the concepts to study the current and phase for a series LRC circuit.
