Ever wonder which direction, clockwise or counter-clockwise,
a standing-wave phasor is rotating?


Clockwise, of course, by convention. Always look at the end of the
machine that lets you draw your phasor diagram clockwise.

This way, when a first phasor is clockwise from a second, the first
phasor occurs first when you convert back to time.
