Formula for The Voltage of a Coil

I've seen 2 different formulas being used for the voltage of a coil in a circuit. The first one is $$U_L=L\cdot\dot{I}$$ and the second one is $$U_L=-L\cdot\dot{I}$$ The first formula was used in a ...

Is an increase in inductive current caused due to an increase in magnetic field?

I'm studying Inductive current in high school. I learned the Faraday law, and that the voltage produced is equal to the delta of magnetic field flux over time. So, I was curious about this topic and ...

How to find the canonical equations of the series RLC circuit? [duplicate]

First, I consider the LC circuit with an ion in the capacitor, which is like this: The current $I$ can be derived easily using Shockly-Ramo theorem \begin{equation} I = -\frac{qp}{dM} + C\dot{U} \ \ ...

Inductor EMF direction

I have some serious troubles with understanding the EMF in inductor. Assume we change the current from value $I_0$ to zero by rotating the tumbler of the source. Then why should we consider the EMF ...

Mutual inductance - induced magnetic flux in the primary

Let there be two coils, L1 (with self inductance L1), and L2, with self inductance L2. The first coil is connected to a sinusoidal supply, and the second one is connected to a resistor load, as shown ...

Why can't the current in a solenoid be changed rapidly?

Why can't the current in a solenoid be changed instananeously? My reasoning is since the current in a solenoid is given by a integral: $$I(t) = \frac{1}{L} \int_{t_0} ^{t_f} V_Ldt$$ then if $t_f = t_i ...

I have a doubt in applying KVL when an inductor comes to play in a circuit

When we apply KVL in a circuit containing R and L elements connected to a battery, we write the voltage (or EMF?) across the inductor as EMF= L di/dt. But, according to Faradays law and Lenz law, we ...

Does an inductor stretch or compress when a current is passed through it?

If an inductor is given to you and it is connected across a battery without any resistance in the circuit,then will the inductor stretch,compress or remain the same length?

Behaviour of inductor (understanding equation)

If an inductor is connected to A.C. source (thinking no resistance is there), and if we travel across circuit there is voltage drop, and it is said $$V=L\frac{\text dI}{\text dt}$$ How we write this ...

How to calculate the Force (in Newtons) produced by a solenoid?

How would I calculate the force on an object (in Newtons) that is under the influence of an electromagnetic field produced from a solenoid? I know it would involve using the equation $B=(μNI)/L$ to ...

A misunderstanding concerning self induction of an inductor

If there is an inductor in a certain electrical circuit, from Faraday's Law we know that $$ \oint \vec{E} \cdot \vec{dl} = -\frac{d\phi_{magnetic}}{dt}$$ I see everywhere that when doing this line ...

Intuition in an LR circuit -- Why does rate of increase in current decreases with time?

Consider the below LR circuit. The current law for the circuit is: $$i=\frac VR(1-e^{- \frac {Rt}L})$$ And Voltage across inductor is: $$L\frac {di}{dt}=V(e^{-\frac {Rt}{L}})$$ This means that the ...

Does Ohm's Law still hold in the presence of a time varying magnetic field?

Ohm's law is often motivated by the microscopic relation \begin{align} \vec{j} = \sigma \vec{E} \end{align} From this you can easily derive \begin{align} U = RI \end{align} , given that \begin{align} ...
