The symbol for inductance is L and the basic unit of inductance is the HENRY (H). One henry is equal to the inductance required to induce one volt in an inductor by a change of current of …
The property of the loop in which its own magnetic field opposes any change in current is called “self-inductance,” and the emf generated is called the self-induced emf or back emf, which we …

Similar to the self-inductance of a coil, the mutual inductance of two coils means that a time-dependent current in one coil induces EMF in the other coil. Indeed, let the current I1(t) in the …
wire can be modeled using inductance. An obvious example is a mot r, whose windings have an inductance. More generally, a device with a current-induced magnetic field that interacts
mutual inductance is a geometric quantity. It depends on the shapes and relative positions of the two coils, and it s independent of the currents in the coils. The SI unit for mutual inductance M …
Faraday’s Law: If the magnetic flux through a wire loop changes in time, there will be an induced emf in the wire with a magnitude equal to the time rate of change of the flux. Lenz’s Law: This …
All practical circuits have some inductance, which may provide beneficial or detrimental effects. For a tuned cir-cuit, inductance is used to provide a frequency selective circuit. Practical …
