20.6 Self-inductance
When a current flows through a loop, the magnetic field
created by that current has a magnetic flux through the
area of the loop.
If the current changes, the magnetic field changes, and
so the flux changes giving rise to an induced emf. This
phenomenon is called self-induction because it is the
loop's own current, and not an external one, that gives
rise to the induced emf.

The magnetic flux is proportional to the magnetic field,
which is proportional to the current in the circuit

Inductor in a Circuit
Inductance can be interpreted as a measure of opposition to the rate
of change in the current

Remember resistance R is a measure of opposition to the current
As a circuit is completed, the current begins to increase, but the
inductor produces an emf that opposes the increasing current


Therefore, the current doesn’t change from 0 to its maximum
instantaneously

the inductor, but when the current begins to
decrease in the circuit, the energy is returned to
the circuit
