Calculating the internal inductance of a long wire without the concept of flux linkage
I did read the following questions: "Flux linkage inside of a conductor", "Derivation of self-inductance of a long wire" and "Trouble understanding fractional flux linkage"
The answers to them are ...

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) = ...

What do we mean exactly by inductance of two conductors?
I'll illustrate what I mean with a problem, but the question is not about this particular question. Instead I am looking for a general principle.
The problem is:
Calculate the inductance of a unit ...

Force vs Stroke for Open-ended Solenoid
If I understand correctly, the force (F) versus stroke (x) curve for a solenoid which is open ended (there is no plunger stop in the middle) is something like the curve below:
The plunger is forced ...

Dot convention inductors in series: what is going on
So I'm really confused with mutual inductors and dot convention. If your answer is going to be a link to any website I can assure I read them all and that only left me more confused. So here are my ...

Does parasitic capacitance contribute to the magnetic flux?
When modeling a real inductor, typically the equivalent circuit is the following one:
Source
A series resistance and parallel capacitor is added.
This model works very well to explain the following ...

Variation of Permeability with DC magnetising Field
For any Powder core, as DC magnetising field increases, the initial permeability decreases known as "permeability roll off".
For example for an MPP core-
For MPP cores the initial ...

If An Instantaneous Force Causes A Charged Particle To Briefly Accelerate, Does Self-inductance Decelerate It?
Consider the following example:
A charged particle initially at rest briefly accelerates in the forward direction due to an initial force. At this point the particle is carried forward only by inertia,...

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 ...

Magnetic field due to a double tape line
I have been asked to calculate the inductance of a double tape line :
Now we know that $$ N\phi = LI$$
So let's calculate the magnetic field by assuming an amperian loop like this:
$$\int B.dl = ...

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 ...

Does there exist a rigorous general mathematical proof for $M <\sqrt{L_1L_2}$?
Does there exist a rigorous general mathematical proof for $M <\sqrt{L_1L_2}$? Here $M$ is the mutual inductance between two conductors and $L_1$ and $L_2$ are their respective self-inductances. (...

Why is the electric field inside a solenoid tangential?
I have been looking at some derivations for the electric field inside a solenoid. I know how to find it, but I don't get the symmetry argument used. This is often of the form:
Since if we choose a ...

Calculating magnetic field strength for a very small electromagnet
I am trying to calculate the magnetic field (in tesla/gauss) of an electromagnet that is very small and has very few windings. For example 12 windings over 0.003 meters. I know this is not going to ...

How Are Electromagnetic Waves Produced?
How EM waves are produced say by a capacitor of an LC circuit here if $E$ is increasing in upward direction?
My thoughts
Thought 1:-
If E is increasing E flux is increasing thus B field must be ...
