    How Does Inductance Affect Energy Storage in AC Circuits?

    yeah you're right :) But the thing is that i(t)= Imax sin(ωt - ∏/2) [the formula for the current in inductors] is not equal to i(t)= Imax sinωt [the formula for the current in resistors which the book used :S] The book should have used i(t)= Imax cosωt for it to equal i(t)= Imax...

    How Does Inductance Affect Energy Storage in AC Circuits?

    A 20.0-mH inductor is connected to a standard electrical outlet (ΔVrms= 120 V; f = 60.0 Hz). Determine the energy stored in the inductor at t = (1/180) s, assuming that this energy is zero at t = 0. Now when i tried to solve it, this is what i did: ω = 2∏ f = 2∏(60.0/s) = 377 rad/s XL =...
