Answer the following points in detail and rigorously. Instead of resorting to formulas, develop from basic principles (laws of voltages and currents, definition of electrical power, properties of phasors, among others). a) Suppose that between the two terminals of an element there is a voltage v (t) and that a current i (t) enters through the terminal marked with a positive sign.
