[On the pronunciation and meaning of Jimen (LR 14) acupoint]

The property of an inductor makes it resist any change in the current passing through it, while the property of a capacitor is to build up the charge across its terminals. Hence, if an inductor and capacitor are connected in series, they have opposite effects on the relative phase between current and voltage. The current through the circuit undergoes forced oscillation at the frequency of the source. The resistance term in an R-L-C circuit acts as a damping term because power is dissipated...

The root mean square (RMS) value is a measure of the effective or average value of an alternating current (AC) waveform. In AC circuits, the voltage or current waveform constantly changes direction and magnitude, making it difficult to describe with a single value. The RMS value provides a convenient way to calculate the equivalent DC voltage or current that would produce the same heating effect in a resistor as the AC waveform.
Mathematically, the RMS value of an AC waveform is the square root...
