why are the effects of self-induction not taken into account when writing electron transport equations in conductors under effect of emf such as with drude equation?
Self-induction is the phenomenon where a changing electric current in a circuit produces an opposing voltage in the same circuit. This occurs because the changing current creates a changing magnetic field, which in turn induces a voltage that opposes the original change in current.
The Drude equation is a mathematical formula that describes the relationship between electrical conductivity, charge carrier concentration, and charge carrier mobility in a material. It is often used to model the behavior of electrons in a conductor.
Self-induction can cause a delay in the flow of current in a circuit, as the opposing voltage produced by the changing current must be overcome. This can lead to fluctuations in the current and can impact the overall performance of the circuit.
The amount of self-induction in a circuit can be affected by the number of turns in the wire, the material of the conductor, the size and shape of the circuit, and the frequency of the current. Additionally, the presence of other nearby conductors or magnetic materials can also impact self-induction.
The Drude equation is used to understand and predict the electrical behavior of various materials, such as metals and semiconductors. This information is important in the design and optimization of electronic devices and circuits, such as transistors and computer chips.
