Hi Guys,
The following query would sound a bit ridiculous and abstract but it suddenly popped up in my head.
What would happen if I were to apply a purely sinusoidal AC voltage across a zero resistance conductor (theoretically, a super conductor) ? Zero resistance would mean the conductor is assumed to carry infinite current thru it (at least theoretically).
However, it would be interesting to note the behaviour of the AC current waveform since the current cannot be limited by way of 'frictional resistance' as the lattice structure inside the super conductor is considered to be absent.
Also the super conductor is assumed to possesses zero inductance!
Kind Regards,
Shahvir
