loop changes.

• Self-inductance, inductance, inductor – a circuit element
• Energy in an inductor

• Mutual inductance
• RC, RLC circuits
• Distinguish between emfs and currents caused by batteries, and those induced by
changing magnetic fields.

Self Inductance
• Consider a solenoid L, connect it to a battery
• What happens as you close the switch?
• Lenz’s law – loop resists change in magnetic field
• Magnetic field is caused by the original current
• “Inductor” resists change in current E +–

C) None of the above D) I don’t know Kirchhoff's law for switches
• Assign currents to every path, as usual
• Kirchhoff's first law is unchanged
• The voltage change for an inductor is
• Negative if with the current
• Positive if against the current
