Wave equation derivation in a transmission line
$$
V(x, t) = L\Delta x\frac{\partial I}{\partial t}(x, t) + \frac{1}{C \Delta x}\int{I_c(x, t) \; dt} \tag{1}
$$
$$
V(x + \Delta x, t) =\frac{1}{C \Delta x} \int {I_c(x, t) \; dt} \tag{2}
$$
$$
I(x) = ...

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 ...

Telegraphers' equations for lossy transmission line when $R$, $L$, $G$, and $C$ are frequency dependent
The telegraphers' equations are commonly written as
$$\frac{{\partial v(z,t)}}{{\partial z}} + R\space i(z,t) + L\frac{{\partial i(z,t)}}{{\partial t}} = 0$$
$$\frac{{\partial i(z,t)}}{{\partial z}} + ...

Are we always allowed to treat an inductor as a battery with the same voltage?
When there is an induced emf, Kirchhoff's Loop Rule no longer is true, because electric fields are nonconservative when there is an induced current, as stated by Faraday's Law:
However, I have seen ...

Inductance and Mutual inductance
Question: Three coils with inductances $L_1, L_2$ and $L_3$, as well as mutual inductances $M_{12}, M_{13}$ and $M_{23}$ are connected in series. What is the total inductance?
The right answer is $L_1+...

Transformers and basic inductor physics
1) Why does resistor reduce the lag in a RL circuit? I understand why current lags by 90° with the voltage across the inductor. (After watching this) But I don't understand why that lag, would be ...

Self Inductor in a circuit
If an self inductor is placed in a circuit and the current is a function of time then where is the emf induced: across the inductor or across the circuit?

What does an induced emf do to a loop of varying current?
I know that the magnetic flux through a loop in space is proportional to the current such that $\Phi=LI$. Therefore a change in magnetic flux will produce an emf, so $\mathscr{E}=-L\dfrac{dI}{dt}$. ...

Is AC voltage across transformer pi shifted?
Suppose the voltage in the primary coil in a capacitor be
Vprimary = Vosin(wt)
According to my understanding, as the (AC) current in the circuit increases, the Magnetic flux across the secondary ...

Determining the condcutivity of a material by method of contactless resistance caused by putting a sample rod in the inductor of an RLC circuit
I'm doing an experiment where I'm trying to determine the conductivity of a material by putting a sample rod in the center of a coil which is a part of an RLC circuit with an AC generator.
I was told ...

How to find magnetic permeability of a mixed core?
Inserting a ferromagnetic rod into the core of an inductor increases its inductance. If the change in inductance is known, the following equation can be used (or so I assume) to find the relative ...

Why are partial derivatives of Energy and Co-Energy with respect to x opposite numbers?
In a system where the flux linkage $\lambda = \lambda(x, i)$ is a function of dispalcement $x$ and current $i$.
Its energy is defined as
$$
W = \int_{0}^{\lambda} i(\lambda', x)d\lambda'.
$$
Its co-...

Doubt in the mode of action of inductor in the RL circuit
I feel that my initial question was slightly incoherent and not precise. So instead of making addendum to the question which is making it lengthier, I am editing it completely. So, sorry about that.
