The unit of inductance is the henry (H).
1 henry (H) is defined as the inductance when a current of 1 ampere (A) produces a voltage of 1 volt (V) across the inductor, while the rate of change of current is 1 ampere per second (A/s).
In formula terms:
\[
L = \frac{V}{\frac{di}{dt}}
\]
where:
So, 1 H means that a change of 1 ampere per second in current through the inductor causes a 1 volt drop across it.
1 henry (H) is defined as the inductance when a current of 1 ampere (A) produces a voltage of 1 volt (V) across the inductor, while the rate of change of current is 1 ampere per second (A/s).
In formula terms:
\[
L = \frac{V}{\frac{di}{dt}}
\]
where:
- \( L \) is the inductance in henries (H),
- \( V \) is the voltage in volts (V),
- \( \frac{di}{dt} \) is the rate of change of current in amperes per second (A/s).
So, 1 H means that a change of 1 ampere per second in current through the inductor causes a 1 volt drop across it.
