Capacitors and inductors exhibit different behaviors in response to changes in voltage and current, have different reactance characteristics, and store energy in different ways. Understanding these attributes and differences is essential for engineers and scientists working in various fields, as they enable the design and analysis of circuits for specific applications.

Customer ServiceUnlike the components we''ve studied so far, in capacitors and inductors, the relationship between current and voltage doesn''t depend only on the present. Capacitors and inductors store electrical energy|capacitors in an electric eld, inductors in a magnetic eld. This enables a wealth of new applications, which we''ll see in coming weeks.

Customer ServiceIn turn, the voltage across the capacitor equals the product of the current multiplied by reactance presented by the capacitor or IXC. Because the voltage across the inductor leads the current by 90o and the voltage across the capacitor lags the current by 90o, the inductive and capacitive voltages are out of phase with each other by 180o.
Customer ServiceInductive reactance (XL) is the opposition to an a.c. current in an inductive circuit. It causes the current in the circuit to lag behind the applied voltage, as shown in Fig. 3.10. It is given by the formula: =2(Ω) Where π = 3.142 (a constant) f = the frequency of the supply L = the inductance of the circuit or by =

Customer ServiceSo in an inductive circuit, current "LAGS" voltage. In DC circuits the current eventually settles to a steady state value, and the period of change prior to steady state depends on the time constant (i.e. the component values) of the circuit.

Customer ServiceAt the higher frequency, its reactance is small and the current is large. Capacitors favor change, whereas inductors oppose change. Capacitors impede low frequencies the most, since low frequency allows them time to become charged and stop the current. Capacitors can be used to filter out low frequencies. For example, a capacitor in series with

Customer ServiceInductor is a pasive element designed to store energy in its magnetic field. Any conductor of electric current has inductive properties and may be regarded as an inductor. To enhance the inductive effect, a practical inductor is usually formed into a cylindrical coil with many turns of conducting wire.
Customer ServiceWe explain two principles of continuity. One for capacitors and one for inductors. These two principles are predicted by the i i - v v equations for capacitors and inductors. The principle of continuity of capacitive voltage says: In the absence of infinite current, the voltage across a capacitor cannot change instantaneously.
Customer ServiceIn an inductor, the voltage is proportional to the rate of change of the current. You may recall the example of a coil of wire, where changing the current changes the magnetic ux, creating a voltage in the opposite direction (Lenz''s law). A capacitor is a component where a charge di erence builds up across the component.
Customer ServiceBut they cannot generate energy, so these are passive devices. The inductor stores energy in its magnetic field; the capacitor stores energy in its electric field. The behavior of the inductor is based on the properties of the magnetic field generated in a coil of wire. In fact, the inductor is basically a coil of wire.
In order to describe the voltage{current relationship in capacitors and inductors, we need to think of voltage and current as functions of time, which we might denote v(t) and i(t). It is common to omit (t) part, so v and i are implicitly understood to be functions of time.
If the current passes through an inductor, the voltage across the inductor is proportional to the time of change of the current. where L is the constant of proportinality called the inductance of the inductor. The unit of inductance is henry (H). Figure 5.11 The current-voltage relationship: The inductor stores energy in its magnetic field.
We explain two principles of continuity. One for capacitors and one for inductors. These two principles are predicted by the i i - v v equations for capacitors and inductors. The principle of continuity of capacitive voltage says: In the absence of infinite current, the voltage across a capacitor cannot change instantaneously.
More generally, capacitors oppose changes in voltage|they tend to \want" their voltage to change \slowly". An inductor's current can't change instantaneously, and inductors oppose changes in current. Note that we're following the passive sign convention, just like for resistors. 1That is, the derivative of voltage with respect to time.
Throughout the cycle, the voltage follows what the current is doing by one-fourth of a cycle: When a sinusoidal voltage is applied to a capacitor, the voltage follows the current by one-fourth of a cycle, or by a phase angle. The capacitor is affecting the current, having the ability to stop it altogether when fully charged.
