How do you determine the impedance of a series circuit of 0.45 H in series with a resistance of 2.5Ω ? You have studied complex number arithmetic?dwn said:Homework Statement
An inductor has an inductance of 0.45 H and internal resistance of 2.5 . If the H
inductor is connected to a 120-V (rms) source at 60 Hz, what is the current (rms) through
it?
The formula for calculating inductance is L = V/I, where L is the inductance in henries (H), V is the voltage in volts (V), and I is the current in amperes (A).
To solve for inductance when given voltage and frequency, use the formula L = V/(2πf), where L is the inductance in henries (H), V is the voltage in volts (V), and f is the frequency in hertz (Hz).
The unit for inductance is the henry (H), named after scientist Joseph Henry.
Yes, you can use the formula I = V/R, where I is the current in amperes (A), V is the voltage in volts (V), and R is the resistance in ohms (Ω). However, you will need to know the resistance in order to calculate the current.
Inductance is the property of a circuit that resists changes in current and stores energy in the form of a magnetic field. It is an important factor in the design and functionality of electrical circuits, particularly in alternating current (AC) circuits.
