Why is it that the flux linkage does not change instantaneously ?
is it some property of magnetic fields?

An inductor is an electronic component that is designed to store energy in the form of a magnetic field. It consists of a coil of wire that can be wound around a core made of a ferromagnetic material. When an electric current flows through the coil, a magnetic field is created. The inductor resists changes in the current by storing energy in the magnetic field.
Flux linkage is a measure of the amount of magnetic flux that is linked with the inductor. In an inductor, the magnetic flux is created by the flow of current through the coil. However, due to the inductance of the coil, the magnetic field takes time to build up and reach its maximum strength. Therefore, the flux linkage does not change instantaneously.
The inductance of an inductor is a measure of its ability to store energy in the form of a magnetic field. The higher the inductance, the more energy an inductor can store. This affects the behavior of an inductor by determining how quickly the magnetic field can build up and how much energy it can store.
The time constant of an inductor is a measure of how quickly the magnetic field can build up or decay. It is calculated by dividing the inductance by the resistance of the coil. The time constant is directly related to flux linkage, as a longer time constant means that the flux linkage will change more gradually.
Inductors are widely used in electronic circuits for a variety of purposes. Some common applications include power supply filtering, motor control, signal processing, and energy storage. They are also used in devices such as transformers, sensors, and electrical filters.
