Inductance
Faraday’s Law
states the voltage induce in a coil by a reaction of a magnetic field is directly proportional to the rate-of-charge of flux and the number of turns(of the conductor) and inversely proportional tot the change in time
Lenz’s Law
the polarity of an induced voltage is always in a direction as to establish a current that opposes the current that caused it
Inductance
property of a circuit that opposes change in current
A Henry(H)
a circuit is said to have one Henry when a change in current of one ampere/per second induces an EMF of one volt
Mutual Inductance (M)
when two coils are brought into proximity of each other, such that the lines of flux from one coil cut the turns of the other. Two coils have a MI of 1 Henry when an EMF of 1V is induced in a coil by the current changing at a rate of one ampere per second in the other coil
Coefficient of coupling(k)
ratio of the actual number of lines of flux cutting the THEORETICAL number that could possibly cut the winding’s
