What factors affect the induced voltage in an induction circuit?

In summary, the voltage across branch 2 in a 2 branch parallel RL circuit will remain the same if the inductor in branch 2 opens. However, the induced voltage across the inductor depends on the rate of change of current and cannot be determined without a diagram or assuming the inductor is perfect.

TL;DR Summary
In a 2 Branch parallel r l circuit what would the voltage across the branch 2 to do if the inductor in branch 2 opens?
I'm thinking it would stay the same. Any answers?

Do you have a diagram to help us figure out what you are asking about? Is this for schoolwork?

Assuming a voltage generator, the voltage stays the same irrespective of load.

The induced voltage across the L will depend on the rate of change of current. There's not enough information to know that unless you assume that the Inductor is perfect. If it is perfect then it resistance would be zero so the standing current would be infinite and the induced voltage would be infinite too.
So your circuit description doesn't give us a possible answer - a diagram may help resolve this.
 

FAQ: What factors affect the induced voltage in an induction circuit?

What is voltage in an induction circuit?

Voltage in an induction circuit is the potential difference between two points in the circuit. It is measured in volts (V) and represents the amount of energy that is available to move electric charges through the circuit.

How is voltage induced in an induction circuit?

Voltage is induced in an induction circuit when there is a change in the magnetic field passing through the circuit. This change in magnetic field creates an electric field, which in turn induces a voltage in the circuit.

What factors affect the voltage in an induction circuit?

The voltage induced in an induction circuit is affected by the rate of change of the magnetic field, the number of turns in the circuit, and the strength of the magnetic field. Additionally, the resistance of the circuit and the frequency of the alternating current can also affect the voltage.

How does voltage in an induction circuit relate to current?

According to Ohm's law, voltage is directly proportional to current and resistance. This means that as the voltage in an induction circuit increases, the current also increases, assuming the resistance remains constant.

What is the difference between induced voltage and applied voltage in an induction circuit?

Induced voltage is the voltage that is generated in the circuit due to changes in the magnetic field, while applied voltage is the voltage that is supplied to the circuit from an external source. Induced voltage is dependent on the circuit's properties, while applied voltage can be controlled by the user.
