In the context of alternating current theory, the imaginary unit is customarily given the symbol jj rather than ii , so that the symbol ii is available, if need be, for electric currents.

If we suppose that the applied voltage $V$ is varying sinusoidally (that is, $V=\hat{V}e^{j\omega t}$ , or, if you prefer, $V=\hat{V}\sin \omega t$ ), then the operator $d^2/dt^2$ , or "double do...If we suppose that the applied voltage $V$ is varying sinusoidally (that is, $V=\hat{V}e^{j\omega t}$ , or, if you prefer, $V=\hat{V}\sin \omega t$ ), then the operator $d^2/dt^2$ , or "double dot", is equivalent to multiplying by $-\omega ^2$ , and the operator $d/dt$ , or "dot", is equivalent to multiplying by $j\omega$ . This is so regardless of the form of the variation of $V$ : it could be sinusoidal, it could be constant, or it could be something quite different.
