    What is a formula for ENF that relates I (current) and H (Henry) ?

    Homework Statement I have this question. If I can get that formula, I will be able to solve it! :) Here is the question: The current in a 51 mH inductor changes with time as I = b t2 − a t. With a = 20 A/s and b = 7 A/s2, find the magnitude of the induced emf, |E|, at t = 1.2 s...

    Basic calculus 1 question: What is the defining formula of sinΘ?

    so, I write: lim [sin(x+h) - sin(x))]/h x→0 So, I get: lim [sin(x) cos(h) + cos(x)sin(h) - sin(x))]/h x→0 But now I am stuck again lol - I understand that if I use \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{sin(h)}{h} then my equation should become: lim [sin(x) cos(h) + cos(x)sin(h) ]/h...
