(x+jy)^(x-jy) ??

hartnn (hartnn):

you've gone too far :P have u made this question on your own ?? :O

hartnn (hartnn):

\(\Large (re^{j\theta })^{re^{-j\theta}}\) nothing much can be done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(0.3468223942 -j0.01960894887)^(2-3i)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

convert to exponential form?

hartnn (hartnn):

you can use calculators, right ? then u can use wolf too http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=%280.3468223942+-+i*0.01960894887%29%5E%282-3i%29

OpenStudy (anonymous):

calcu says math error! haha

hartnn (hartnn):

lol thank god we have wolf to our rescue :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can't use this wolf in exams.. :'( haha just for now.. :DD

hartnn (hartnn):

in exam, you can try converting into \(\Large (re^{j\theta })^{re^{-j\theta}} = r^{r}r^{e^{-j\theta}}\times e^{rj\theta}e^{e^{-j\theta}j\theta} \)

hartnn (hartnn):

that seems even more complex

hartnn (hartnn):

\(e^{-j\theta} = \cos \theta -i\sin \theta \) prolly that might help...

hartnn (hartnn):

you calculator can do (real)^(complex) ?

hartnn (hartnn):

if it can, it solves all your problems

hartnn (hartnn):

like 3^(5+8i)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

eh , why j is complex ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

converted: \[(0.3473e ^{j9.8574x10^-4}))^{\sqrt{13}e ^{j0.0172}}\] ?

hartnn (hartnn):

can it do 0.347^(2-3i) ?

hartnn (hartnn):

i guess exponent is not required to be in the form r e^(it) it can remain in x+iy form

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[(x+jy)^{x-jy} = r^{(x-jy)/2}\cdot e^{j\theta (x-jy)} =\cdots \] see this for a more general formula http://mathworld.wolfram.com/ComplexExponentiation.html

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(j\) for engineers \(i\) for mathematicians @Marki

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:O lol i from imaginary :P why u guys changed that >.<

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

i for current

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i guess engineers have a problem of imagining >.<

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol ok fair enough !

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\large \begin{align}&(0.3468223942 -j0.01960894887)^{2-3i} \\~\\& = \left(0.35e^{-i3.24}\right)^{2-3i}\\~\\&= 0.35^{2-3i} e^{-i3.24(2-3i)}\\~\\ &= 0.35^{2-3i} e^{-9.72 - 6.48i} \\~\\ &= 0.35^{2} e^{-9.72} 0.35^{-3i} e^{-6.48i}\\~\\ &= 0.35^{2} e^{-9.72} e^{-3i \ln (0.35)} e^{-6.48i}\\~\\ &= 0.35^{2} e^{-9.72} e^{-i(3 \ln (0.35)+6.48)} \\~\\ &= \cdots \end{align}\]
