Self and Mutual Inductance

Self-inductance and mutual inductance are two important concepts in the field of electromagnetism. Self-inductance refers to the property of a circuit element, such as a coil or solenoid, to generate an electromotive force (EMF) in itself when the current through it changes. The EMF produced is proportional to the rate of change of the current…

Capacitance

Capacitance is a measure of a capacitor’s ability to store electric charge. A capacitor is an electronic component that consists of two conductive plates separated by a dielectric material, such as air or a non-conductive plastic. When a voltage is applied across the plates, electrons from one plate accumulate on the other, creating an electric…
