    Potential difference of an inductor equal to minus the induced emf?

    Hi, Two questions I'm finding it hard to get my head around with inductors... Say we have an increasing current, this is going to cause an increase in flux in one direction, which will induce an emf to drive a current which produces a magnetic field to oppose the change in flux. Than doing...

    Difference btw induced and static electric field.

    ∇x E≠0 for an induced electric field whereas for field produced by static charges we have ∇x E=0. This is a very huge difference in the property of a vector field,then why do we call both of them electric field ?

    Induced charge on a solid metal sphere

    All I understand clearly that if a metal sphere is charged then the charges must reside on the surface because that is the only way there is no electric field within the metal. However if you imagine a neutral metal sphere, and let's say it is suddenly enclosed by a uniformly charged metal...
