Like resistance is when there is hindrance towards the motion of electrons in an object. Then on similar lines what is inductance?
In: 19
Resistance slows all electrons that are trying to move through the device. Inductance only impacts electrons that are trying to change the current in the wire. In a DC circuit at steady state, the impact of an inductor is negligible. Reduce the current, the inductor tries to keep it going, much like a capacitor would. increase the current, or reverse the current, and the inductor resists the current change.
