An inductor used in a dc power supply has an inductance of 11.0 H and a resistance of 130 Ω. It carries a current of 0.550 A. What is the energy stored in the magnetic field? At what rate is thermal energy developed in the inductor?

Part A

What is the energy stored in the magnetic field?

Part B

At what rate is thermal energy developed in the inductor?

Solutions

Expert Solution

Part A)   energy stored in the magnetic field = 1/2 * L * I2

                                                                    = 1/2 * 11.0 * 0.5502

                                                                     = 1.66375 J

Part B)   rate is thermal energy developed in the inductor = I2 R

                                                                                      =   0.5502 * 130

                                                                                      = 39.325 W
