Phase shift Definition and 141 Threads

Hi. What is the phase shift of a tuned mass damper with respect to the oscillation of the surrounding structure, such as the big pendulum in Taipei 101? Simple resonance theory would suggest ##\frac{\pi}{2}##, but animations in explanatory videos often depict them in anti-phase, i.e. a phase...

Hello, My textbook offers the following transfer function as an example. It then goes on to explain that the following equations represent the magnitude and phase shift of the transfer function. However, I am having some difficulty jumping from the first equation to these equations. From...

Hi, Curious if there is an expression for a negative feedback system that experiences phase shift. For example, at 0 degree phase shift, the additional gain is 0 because it is fully negative feedback. At 180 phase shift the additional gain is infinite because you have full positive feedback. Is...

Hello, Came across this picture and passage from a textbook. Although the text lays out a method for calculating the phase shift between displacement and acceleration, I am not sure how they are calculating which wave is leading and which is lagging. From their description, it seems like a...

For one of our projects we are at present using quite large amounts of gas & oxygen. What I was trying to figure out was how to calculate the total available amount of gas in a cylinder (be that either Propane/Oxygen or Propylene (Propene)) and then to determine whether or not -given a certain...

When wiring a 240 volt AC circuit, I've always assumed that it's important for L1 and L2 wires to be the exact same length, in order to avoid introducing a phase shift that would reduce peak voltage. Length differences can accumulate when the wires enter a panel and need to go slightly...

It is possible to build a purely passive RC phase shift oscillator with 2 separate (in the future) RC stages like this? Where there would be 2 RC networks that each provide 180 degrees of phase shift. Of course, there would be a buffer in between the 2 RC networks so that they behave as 2...

Hi, I have created a sine wave with the following options: 1.) - changing the period/length in days of the sine wave (Cycle Length in Days) 2.) - calculating the start value of the "dummy" so that the sine wave always starts with -1 (Dummy Start at Cycle Trough) when the phase shift is set...

Hello everyone. I am having some trouble with an RC phase shift oscillator that I built as a hobby project. I am completely stuck on this and I just cannot figure it out. My oscillator is not oscillating. Here is the circuit that I am trying to get to work. Taken from...

When light originating from a medium of lower refractive index reflects off a surface of higher refractive index, why does the phase shift by 180 degrees? Stokes relations show that reflection coefficients at the surface are equal but of opposite signs depending on direction of light (i.e...

How do you determine the phase shift of an aliased signal?

a.) The potential is a delta function, so ##V \left( r \right) = \frac {\hbar^2} {2\mu} \gamma \delta \left(r-a \right)##, therefore ##V \left( r \right) = \frac {\hbar^2} {2\mu} \gamma ## at ##r=a##, and ##V \left( r \right) = 0## otherwise. I've tried a few different approaches: 1.) In...

Hey fellas, I’m trying to apply a variable phase shift (0 to 180 degrees) on an AC signal generated from a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD). The frequency is variable and ranged between 10 and 50 Hz. the voltage amplitude is also variable between 10-50Volts (this shouldn’t be a problem I suppose)...

I built a phase shift oscillator, but it Won't work. I visit the website https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-shift_oscillator&ved=2ahUKEwiV4Y-26OHiAhUClawKHQhACO8QFjANegQIChAG&usg=AOvVaw0YoHKumGz0Xl3fYKtIRdFa and copied the schematic I saw...

I'm confused by the phase shifts in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer because I keep finding two different explanations. One explanation (for example, given on Wikipedia, but also elsewhere) states that on each reflection, the phase shift is 180 degrees, but only, if light is reflected from the...

I have problems deriving a formula in a paper I'm reading for a project. The paper is about putting a number of waveplates in series rotated relatively to each other to form a tuneable broadband waveplate. For the i-th waveplate the jones matrix is given by: $$ J_{i}(\delta_i, \Theta_i)=...

I've seen this video: There it is explained that an electromagnetic (here radio) wave has a phase shift if it was radiated in horizontal polarization, but it does not experience the phase shift when it was emitted vertically polarized when it gets reflected on the ground. When reading up on...

Hello, I am trying to think of a way to introduce a phase shift in an ac circuit. For example, sin(omega*t+theta) to change theta. How can I go about doing this? I do not think introducing a cap or inductor would work, even though it shifts the voltage from the current graphs (phasors). A...
