   phi is the phase compared with the phase of V being 0 degrees.   
      
   note V is strictly Real (like a constant). Or V(angle)(0). No phase or a phase   
   of 0.

   (for starters, we can analyse these notions using a graph of x(real axis) vs.   
   y(imaginary axis) and then using a polar notation we can see where a simple j   
   has the angle 90, -j = -90 and 1 has 0 degrees. anyway.)

   Z_t = x_t + jy_t.   
      
   in parallel Z_t = 1 /  (1/Z_1 + 1/Z_2 + ... + 1/Z_m ).   
      
   that is 1/Z_t = (1/Z_1 + 1/Z_2 + ... + 1/Z_m ).   
      
   we can still use the notation Z_t = x_t + jx_t.   
   and then we build upon these notions as the voltage and current become more   
   dynamic (not a steady state sine wave).
