Most interesting ...
Would this mean that under certain circumstances the phase between
voltage and current over/trough a resistor can be 90 degrees ?
In that case the power distribution industry would be very interested as
this would allow transportation of electric energy without any
losses.
If this is so I will inform the superconductor research group here at the
university that it is about time for them to look for another research
field as it is already possible to have a conductor that dissipates no
power.
