Question

When an alternating signal flows through an inductor,
Options
A voltage leads current by 90°
Correct Answer
B current leads voltage by 90°
C voltage lags current by 90°
D current and voltage are in phase
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

In pure inductor, V = L(dI/dt), so voltage peaks 90° before current.

Hint

ELI: EMF (voltage) leads current in L.
