Camera flashes charge a capacitor to high voltage by switching the current through an inductor on and off rapidly. In what time must the \(0.100{\rm{ }}A\) current through a \(2.00{\rm{ }}mH\) inductor be switched on or off to induce a \(500{\rm{ }}V\) emf?
Using RHR-1, show that the emfs in the sides of the generator loop in Figure \(23.23\) are in the same sense and thus add.

To receive AM radio, you want an RLC circuit that can be made to resonate at any frequency between\(500\) and\(1650{\rm{ }}kHz\). This is accomplished with a fixed\(1.00{\rm{ }}\mu H\)inductor connected to a variable capacitor. What range of capacitance is needed?
An RLC series circuit has aresistor and a inductor. At , the phase angle is . (a) What is the impedance? (b) Find the circuit's capacitance. (c) Ifis applied, what is the average power supplied?
How would you shape a given length of wire to give it the greatest self-inductance? The least?
