The current through an inductor of inductance L is given by I(t) = Imax sin(ωt).
(a) Derive an expression for the induced emf in the inductor as a function of time.
(b) At t = 0, is the current through the inductor increasing or decreasing?
(c) At t = 0, is the induced emf opposing or aiding the flow of the charge carriers? (Remember that the direction of a positive induced emf is the same as the current direction and the direction of a negative induced emf is opposite the current direction.)
(d) How are the answers to parts b and c consistent with the behavior of inductors discussed in the text?

Respuesta :

Answer:

(a) [tex]emf_L=-LI_{max}\omega cos(\omega t)[/tex]

(b) neither increasing or decreasing

(c) opposite to the flow of charge carriers

Explanation:

The current through an inductor of inductance L is given by:

[tex]I(t)=I_{max}sin(\omega t)[/tex]   (1)

(a) The induced emf is given by the following formula

[tex]emf_L=-L\frac{dI}{dt}[/tex]    (2)

You derivative the expression (1) in the expression (2):

[tex]emf_L=-L\frac{d}{dt}(I_{max}sin(\omega t))\\\\emf_L=-LI_{max}\omega cos(\omega t)[/tex]

(b) At t=0 the current is zero

(c) At t = 0 the emf is:

[tex]emf_L=-\omega LI_{max}[/tex]

w, L and Imax have positive values, then the emf is negative. Hence, the induced emf is opposite to the flow of the charge carriers.

(d) read the text carefully

At t zero,  the current through the inductor neither increasing nor decreasing because current is zero.

The current through an inductor of inductance L can be calculated by

[tex]\bold {I_t = I_m_a_x sin (\omega t)}[/tex].........1  

(a) The induced emf can be calculated by  

[tex]\bold {emf_L = - L \dfrac {dI}{dt}}[/tex]............2  

Derivative the equation (1) in the equation (2)

[tex]\bold {emf _L= -L \dfrac {d (I _m_a_x sin (\omega t)} {dt}}\\\\\bold {emf _L= -L (I _m_a_x \omega cos( \omega t) }[/tex]

(b) At t=0 the current is zero,

 

(c) At t = 0 the emf is:

[tex]\bold {emf_L = -\omega LI _m_a_x}[/tex]  

Therefore, at t zero,  the current through the inductor neither increasing nor decreasing because current is zero.
