Whenever a force/influence etc gets split into two daughter forces/influences or two branches,...complex numbers come into the picture.
In electronics, when you put a resistor in the path of electrons, all that they do is burn electrons. So there is only one effect the overall circuit has on the army of electrons, burning.
But now when you put a capacitor or an inductor in the path of the incoming electron army, what do they do ?
They delay the flow of electrons. They as if act as a traffic police or say a dam. They hold electrons for some time and then they leave these electrons .
So now there are two daughter branches of effects on the incoming army of electrons.
1) The resistance which fries electrons .
This is also called as the real part.
2) The capacitance which just delays the electrons.
This is also called as the imaginary part.
Yes, I too am searching for the guy who came up with the nomenclature of real and imaginary parts . One day I will get him in my hands.
