CAN Current pass Through INDUCTOR in Ac circuit

AI Thread Summary
Current can pass through an inductor in an AC circuit due to its impedance, which is not infinite. The ability of AC to flow depends on the inductance value and the frequency of the AC signal; lower frequencies allow more current to pass. Unlike capacitors, which create a physical break in the circuit, inductors maintain a continuous path for current flow. Therefore, while inductors resist changes in current, they do not completely block AC. Understanding these principles is essential for analyzing AC circuits with inductive components.

CAN Current pass Through INDUCTOR?
how the AC circuit is completed when Inductor is in it as no AC pass through it?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
The impedance of an inductor is ##Z=j\omega L##. Since this is not infinite, AC current can pass through.

That depends on the value of inductance and the frequency of the AC current. If the inductance is small, low frequency AC signals can pass through.

I would think that you would have MORE of a problem with asking how a current can pass through a CAPACITOR in an AC circuit, since a capacitor is an actual, physical break in the circuit. An inductor, even though it can act as a choke, still provides a continuous physical path.

Thread 'Motional EMF in Faraday disc, co-rotating magnet axial mean flux'
So here is the motional EMF formula. Now I understand the standard Faraday paradox that an axis symmetric field source (like a speaker motor ring magnet) has a magnetic field that is frame invariant under rotation around axis of symmetry. The field is static whether you rotate the magnet or not. So far so good. What puzzles me is this , there is a term average magnetic flux or "azimuthal mean" , this term describes the average magnetic field through the area swept by the rotating Faraday...
