Motion of a magnet inside a solenoid
I have a homework problem where a bar magnet is placed halfway inside a horizontal solenoid. A cut away shows that the magnet's north pole points to the left of the page and the south pole is outside ...

Cannot catch a minus sign mistake when deriving the ODE for an LC circuit
It's probably a very basic question but I just cannot wrap my mind around it. I'll just try to derive the differential equation for an LC circuit:
According to the law of induction, in a solenoid we ...

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 $\mathscr{E}=-L\dfrac{dI}{dt}$. ...

Magnetic flux inside solenoid
Suppose that I have a small coil that is moved at a steady rate into a solenoid. The solenoid already has a current passing through (basically, it is an electromagnet). The small coil starts beyond ...

Inductors with different directions connected in series
I know that inductors oppose the change of the current. So for two inductors with different direction in series (one in clockwise and the other in counterclockwise), the equivalent inductor is $L_{eq} ...

Do transformers return current to source when magnetic field collapse at primary coil?
When we close the circut containing an inductor and a battery, the current starts flowing, which builds magnetic field around inductor, changing magnetic field produces its own current in opposite ...

Self-inductance of a finite solenoid
Where did the $l$ in the denominator come from? I am talking about the $l$ in muNI/2l[...]?
I can't match LHS and RHS.

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 ...

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 ...

Disagreement between theoretical and experimental inductance of a coil
I have a coil of 20 AWG enameled copper magnet wire with approximately 270 turns: 9 layers of 30 turns. The coil is tightly packed with an overall height of about 30 mm, an overall outer diameter of ...

Why $di/dt$ in inductor circuit reduces gradually after closing the switch?
When we close circuit having an inductor, an induced emf is generated across the inductor which opposes change in current through the circuit. This back emf depends on rate of change of current $di/dt$...

Kinetic Inductance and Magnetic Flux
Superconductors (SCs) are known to have kinetic inductance which is the manifestation of the inertial mass of superfluid. In this link, the concept is explained as follows:
When a current flows the ...

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}} + ...
