Mutual Inductance of two coils:
Some of the magnetic flux through one coil also passes through the other coil, inducing a voltage.
Inductance is magnetic flux/current.Slide3
Self-Inductance

Changing current through the wires in a coil will induce a voltage that opposes the CHANGE in the current.Slide4
Magnetic Field Energy

When an inductor has a steady current, it stores potential energy.
This leads to a general formula for potential energy stored in any magnetic field:
This formula is for magnetic energy
density
,
Which is energy
per unit volume

R-L Circuit
Prepared by Vince Zaccone
For Campus Learning Assistance Services at UCSB
When connected in a circuit with a resistor, an inductor will have the effect of slowing down changes in the current through the resistor.
When the current is steady (the switch has been closed for a long time), the inductor has no effect, but there is potential energy stored in the inductor.Slide8
R-L Circuit

If switch S
1
is closed in the circuit, current will begin to flow through the resistor and inductor as shown. This increasing current will induce current to flow the opposite direction, slowing the growth of the current.
We can write down a formula for the current as a function of time:
The quantity
is called the “time constant” for this exponential decay.

Once the current reaches a steady value we can flip the switches, opening S
1
and closing S
2. Then current will keep flowing for while as the inductor opposes this decreasing current.
A similar formula describes this decaying current as a function of time:

Example: A 35.0V battery
with negligible internal
resistance, a 50.0
Ω resistor and a 1.25mH inductor are connected in series with an open switch. The switch is suddenly closed.How long after closing the switch will the current through the inductor reach half of its maximum value?
How long after closing the switch will the energy stored in the inductor reach half its maximum value?Slide11

How long after closing the switch will the energy stored in the inductor reach half its maximum value?
As soon as the switch is closed, current begins to flow around the circuit, increasing toward a maximum value given by Ohm’s Law. Here is the formula:
We want to find the time when the current is half of the maximum.
For part b) we want the energy to be half of its maximum, so use the energy formula:
Using the formula for current again:

L-C Circuit
A circuit containing a capacitor and an inductor will exhibit an oscillating current, with potential energy transferring back and forth.Slide13

L-C Circuit
The oscillations in an L-C circuit should look familiar. This situation is directly analogous to an
undamped
mass-spring system that we saw previously.
All of the formulas we developed for that case are repeated here, with charge, q, taking the place of displacement, x. The capacitor is related to the spring constant, and the inductance is like mass.To add in the damping, we just include a resistor in the circuit…Slide14

We can use energy for this if we want to. When all the energy is in the inductor it will have maximum current. When all the energy is in the capacitor it will have maximum charge.

Total energy can be found from max current or max charge. Should be the same either way. We can solve for the charge when the current is as given:

How long does it take for the capacitor to go from maximum charge to zero charge?To go from no charge to fully charged is a quarter of a cycle, so we need to find the period of the oscillation. We have a formula for angular frequency:
Rearrange this to get the period, then divide by 4:

L-R-C Series Circuit
Formulas for this case are developed in the same way as the L-C circuit, we just include an extra term involving resistance:
Solving this differential equation gives a general solution:
This solution is for the underdamped case:
R

<4L/C
The angular frequency in this case is:
Notice this is less than the frequency in the
undamped
L-C circuit – the resistor slows down the oscillations.Slide20

Example: Assume the switch has been in the position shown in the figure for a long time (so the capacitor is fully charged and no current is flowing). When the switch is moved (to connect points a and d in the figure), find the following:
The initial charge on the capacitor, and initial total energy in this system.
The frequency of oscillation for this circuit.
The maximum current through the inductor, and the time when that current is first achieved.
