What factors affect the induced voltage in an induction circuit?

AI Thread Summary
Induced voltage in an induction circuit is influenced by the rate of change of current and the characteristics of the inductor. In a parallel R-L circuit, if the inductor in one branch opens, the voltage across that branch is expected to remain constant due to the voltage generator. However, without specific details or a diagram, it is difficult to determine the exact behavior of the circuit. Assuming a perfect inductor, the resistance would be zero, leading to theoretically infinite current and induced voltage. More information is needed for a definitive answer.

TL;DR Summary
In a 2 Branch parallel r l circuit what would the voltage across the branch 2 to do if the inductor in branch 2 opens?
I'm thinking it would stay the same. Any answers?

Do you have a diagram to help us figure out what you are asking about? Is this for schoolwork?
 
Assuming a voltage generator, the voltage stays the same irrespective of load.

The induced voltage across the L will depend on the rate of change of current. There's not enough information to know that unless you assume that the Inductor is perfect. If it is perfect then it resistance would be zero so the standing current would be infinite and the induced voltage would be infinite too.
So your circuit description doesn't give us a possible answer - a diagram may help resolve this.
 

Thread 'What happens if shielded cable has a short to the shield?'

While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'Question about bonding ground and neutral'

I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
