Impedance Graphic

This image diagrams capacitive and inductive circuits, with capacitive reactance predominante in capacitive circuits with voltage lagging/current leading in a capacitive circuit, and with inductive reactance predominante in inductive circuits with voltage leading/current lagging in an inductive circuit. Resistance is at a 90 degree angle to the opposite capacitive and inductie vectors.

Magnetic Field Strength Graphic

This image diagrams the relationship between an applied voltage and the magnetic field produced, indicating that over some voltage magnetic field strength no longer is increased (the magnetic material is saturated).

Current Flow Graphic

This image diagrams the relationship between an applied voltage and the current flow produced along with a given magnetic field in magnetic material, indicating that over some given voltage (when the magnetic field strength no longer is increased because the magnetic material is saturated) the current increase is potentially infinite.
