MTH 102 PHY 102 Past Questions Objective Question

Question

Which of following circuit element stores energy in electromagnetic field?
Options
A Inductor
Correct Answer
B Condenser
C Resistor
D Capacitor
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

An inductor stores energy in its magnetic field when current flows through it (Energy = 1/2 LI²).A capacitor (also known as a condenser) stores energy in its electric field (Energy = 1/2 CV²).A resistor dissipates energy as heat (Energy = I²Rt).

Hint

Consider the type of field (electric or magnetic) associated with each component and where it stores energy.
