Examples for

Inductors

Inductors are devices that store electrical energy in a magnetic field while an electric current is applied. Use Wolfram|Alpha to compute inductance of various physical systems. Compute the energy storage and inductive reactance of inductors.

Inductors

Calculate the inductance of different physical systems and the energy stored within them.

Compute inductive reactance:
