Self-inductance – • Any circuit which carries a varying current self-induced from it’s own magnetic field is said to have INDUCTANCE (L).
Inductance Defined If the FLUX changes a bit during a short time Dt, then the current will change by a small amount Di. Faraday says this is the emf! This is actually a calculus equation Induction
So … E= (-) sign is Lenz’s Law The UNIT of “Inductance – L” of a coil is the henry. SYMBOL: Induction
Remember that a Capacitor stored ENERGY? U=(1/2)CV2 U=Area=(1/2)LI2 i Li LI Li DU i Di I Induction Induction
SO … Energy Stored in a capacitor The energy stored in a capacitor with capacitance C and a voltage V is U=(1/2)CV2 Induction
The Energy stored is in the Magnetic Field Consider a solenoid with N turns that is very long. We assume that the field is uniform throughout its length, ignoring any “end effects”. For a long enough solenoid, we can get away with it for the following argument. Maybe. Induction
