WHAT DOES PHASOR MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Phasor

In physics and engineering, a phase vector, or phasor, is a representation of a sinusoidal function whose amplitude, frequency, and phase are time-invariant. It is a subset of a more general concept called analytic representation. Phasors separate the dependencies on A, ω, and θ into three independent factors. This can be particularly useful because the frequency factor is often common to all the components of a linear combination of sinusoids. In those situations, phasors allow this common feature to be factored out, leaving just the A and θ features. The result is that trigonometry reduces to algebra, and linear differential equations become algebraic ones. The term phasor therefore often refers to just those two factors. In older texts, a phasor is also referred to as a sinor.

Definition of phasor in the English dictionary

The definition of phasor in the dictionary is a rotating vector representing a quantity, such as an alternating current or voltage, that varies sinusoidally.
