After the current flows a B field builds up in
the inductor. Work is done to increase the
current from I0, to I
3Work is done to increase the current against the
induced emf.

5A coil with L10-3 H carries a current of 10 A.
How much potential energy is stored in the
inductor?

The energy density ?B (energy/volume) just
depends on B2
7The magnetic field at the earths surface has a
magnitude of 0.5 x10-4T. Find the magnetic field
energy in a volume of 1m3.
8Energy is stored in a magnetic fields
(inductor) Energy is stored in electric
fields (capacitor) This energy will be
important when we consider electromagnetic
radiation where energy is transferred in the
form of electric and magnetic fields.

- Resistors, capacitors and inductors in an ac
circuit. - Average properties. Voltage, current, power
- The quiz will only cover chapter 20.
10Household electricity comes as an alternating
current (ac). We discuss the different
behavior of resistors, capacitors and inductors
in ac circuits.

13The power dissipation depend on V2, and I2.
This is because dissipation occurs regardless of
the direction of the current.
The average of ?V2 and I2 are important for
power.
The average of ?V2 and I2 are not zero.

Generally when we refer to ac voltage, current or
power these are the RMS values
16An ac voltage has an RMS voltage of 120V. a) Find
the maximum voltage. b) Find the peak power
through a 10O resistor.
