b)

1Leq∑n=1N1Ln

Step by step solution

01

Given

Hint: Review the derivation for resistors in parallel and capacitors in parallel.

02

Understanding the concept

Net current through the parallel connection of inductors is the sum of currents through each inductor, and the voltage across each inductor remains the same.

Formulae:

Voltage across the inductor is given by

ε=-Ldidt

03

(a) Show that the equivalent inductance is given by 1Leq=1L1+1L2

Voltage across inductor is given by

ε=-Ldidt

For parallel connection:

i=i1+i2

Differentiate with respect to t.

didt=di1dt+di2dt-εLeq=-εL1+-εL2

Hence,

1Leq=1L1+1L2

04

(b) Find out the generalization of (a) for N inductors in parallel?

Equivalent inductance ofNinductors in parallel is

1Leq=1L1+1L2+1L3+...+1Ln

The generalization of above equation is

1Leq=∑n=1n1Ln

In Figure, a wire forms a closed circular loop, of radius R = 2.0mand resistance4.0Ω. The circle is centered on a long straight wire; at time t = 0, the current in the long straight wire is 5.0 Arightward. Thereafter, the current changes according toi=5.0A-(2.0As2)t2. (The straight wire is insulated; so there is no electrical contact between it and the wire of the loop.) What is the magnitude of the current induced in the loop at times t > 0?

Inductors in series. Two inductors L1 and L2 are connected in series and are separated by a large distance so that the magnetic field of one cannot affect the other.(a)Show that the equivalent inductance is given by

A coil is connected in series with a 10.0kΩresistor. An ideal 50.0 Vbattery is applied across the two devices, and the current reaches a value of 2.00 mAafter 5.00 ms.(a) Find the inductance of the coil. (b) How much energy is stored in the coil at this same moment?

Figure 30-27 shows a circuit with two identical resistors and an ideal inductor.

Is the current through the central resistor more than, less than, or the same as that through the other resistor (a) just after the closing of switch S, (b) a long time

after that, (c) just after S is reopened a long time later, and (d) a long time after that?

In Figure (a), the inductor has 25 turns and the ideal battery has an emf of 16 V. Figure (b) gives the magnetic fluxφ through each turn versus the current i through the inductor. The vertical axis scale is set by φs=4.0×10-4Tm2, and the horizontal axis scale is set by is=2.00AIf switch S is closed at time t = 0, at what ratedidtwill the current be changing att=1.5τL?
