Complex Z             Lyrics by Walter Smith, 1‐21‐05 To the tune of “Let it Be” by John Lennon & Paul McCartney  When I’m analyzing AC circuits,  my professor comes to me, Speaking words of wisdom: Complex Z. And in my deep confusion,  he is standing right in front of me, Speaking words of wisdom: Complex Z.  Complex Z, complex z,  one over i omega C, Whisper words of wisdom:  Z‐sub‐C.  ‐‐Instrumental Interlude ‐‐   And when the anxious physics students working problem sets agree,  “We don’t understand this complex Z.”  For though they may be foggy,  there is still a chance that they will see, They will find the answer, using Z.  Complex Z, complex z, for phase or magnitude of AC, It will give the answer, complex Z.  ‐‐Instrumental Interlude ‐‐   And when there are inductors, you use i omega L, you see, Voltage leads the current ‐‐  complex Z.  I wake up to the sound of music,  my professor sings to me, Singing words of wisdom: complex Z.  Complex Z, complex z, for RC filters now I see, The voltage is divided  by the Z.  Complex Z, complex z, complex Z, complex Z ‐‐  It will give the answer, complex Z.
