And, as expected
Ps(t) = Prs(t) + Pg(t)


Would you please explain how energy is conserved in the
following example at the zero-crossing point for Vs?

Rs Vg Vl
+----/\/\/-----+----------------------+
| 50 ohm |

Vs 45 degrees | Shorted
100v RMS 50 ohm line | Stub

At the zero-crossing of Vs, Ps(t) = 0, i.e. the source
is supplying zero watts at that time but Prs(t) = 100w.
Where is the 100 watts coming from?
