Electric Generators, Alternating CurrentInductor in a CircuitInductance can be interpreted as a measure of opposition to the rate of change in the currentRemember resistance R is a measure of opposition to the currentAs a circuit is completed, the current begins to increase, but the inductor produces an emf that opposes the increasing currentTherefore, the current doesn’t change from 0 to its maximum instantaneouslyRL CircuitWhen the current reaches its maximum, the rate of change and the back emf are zeroThe time constant, , for an RL circuit is the time required for the current in the circuit to reach 63.2% of its final value /1tI eR Energy Stored in a Magnetic FieldThe emf induced by an inductor prevents a battery from establishing an instantaneous current in a circuitThe battery has to do work to produce a currentThis work can be thought of as energy stored by the inductor in its magnetic fieldPEL = ½ L I2A long, straight wire is in the same plane as a rectangular, conducting loop.The wire carries a constant current I as shown in the figure.
