This new and expanded edition is designed for students enrolled in AC electrical circuit analysis courses. It includes a range of problems and detailed solutions to enhance understanding of the subject. The textbook features partially and fully solved exercises, along with hints for the necessary formulas and answers. This structure allows students to study the topic as they walk through problem-solving methods and solutions. The book covers fundamental concepts and laws of electrical circuit analysis in the sinusoidal steady-state. It addresses sinusoidal steady-state analysis using various methods and examination of circuits driven by multiple frequencies. Topics also include root-mean-square (RMS) values, applications of electrical circuit theorems in the sinusoidal steady state, and discussions of average power, reactive power, apparent power, and complex power for resistors, capacitors, inductors, and impedances. Further content examines the power factor for different types of impedances, resonance, frequency response, bandwidth, and quality factors of electrical circuits, along with sinusoidal steady-state analysis of circuits that include magnetically coupled inductors and transformers. 

With its thorough solutions, diverse problem-solving approaches, and clear explanations, this hands-on guide aims to improve students' problem-solving skills and foster a strong understanding of electric circuit analysis. Additionally, it serves as a valuable resource for instructors in developing questions, tests, and quizzes.
