Transient is an Effect without a Cause giving the Appearance of the Reversal of Time
This is why when you translate the English term of “reactance” into the Russian language, you may not find an equivalent term in their language. Instead, they use the word “active” to signify reactance (resultant) suggesting their tunnel vision view of reactance as being purely a transient (an effect without a cause) when in fact it can be other things as well.
But their translational emphasis points out the weirdest aspect of reactive power as being the phenomenon of a transient which we know so little about because we refuse to believe that we can have an effect without a cause; or if you prefer, the reversal of time.
Either way, it’s barking up a tree that physicists, here in the West, don’t want to go and admit, openly, to these alternative interpretations of what constitutes the existence of a transient.
