Question
Which of the following circuit element stores energy in electromagnetic field?
Correct Answer
Option A is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
An inductor (coil) stores energy in the magnetic field generated when current flows through it. A capacitor (also called a condenser) stores energy in an electric field between its plates. A resistor dissipates energy as heat.
Hint
Consider the type of field (electric or magnetic) associated with energy storage in each component.
