Open in App
Solution

  1. Inductance: When a varying electric current flows through a conductor, a varying magnetic field is produced surrounding it. Due to this, the magnetic flux varies and an electromotive force is induced.
  2. The inductance is represented by the letter L and its unit of measurement is Henry (H).
  3. It is named after its discoverer, the scientist Joseph Henry.
  4. One Henry value is equivalent to the induced one volt by changing of current in one ampere per second.

Hence, the inductance is measured in Henry (H).
