The ability to store energy in the form of a magnetic field. Any length of wire has some inductance, and coiling the wire, especially around a ferromagnetic core, increases the inductance. The unit of inductance is the henry. Compare capacitance, induction.
(Physics) A property of an electric circuit by which an electromotive force is induced in it by a variation of current; SYN. induction.
inertialike property of electrical circuit causing time to elapse before full value of current is established, or before zero is reached when current is removed; property of a circuit by virtue of which induction takes place.
In physics, a measure of the capability of an electronic circuit or circuit component to form a magnetic field or store magnetic energy when carrying a current. Its symbol is L, and its unit of measure is the henry.
The magnetic field produced induces voltages in the same circuit or a nearby circuit. + prikaži više
