No. An inductor is not a resistor, and a resistor is not an inductor.
A resistor is a device that resists current by causing a known voltage drop to a known current. Ohm's law states that voltage is current times resistance.
An inductor, on the other hand, resists a change in current because it is a stored energy device, working on the principle of bucking magnetic fields. The equation of an inductor is ...
di/dt = v/L
... which means that the rate of change of current is proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to inductance.
From an analytic point of view, often we consider devices to be like resistors, and we do that for inductors as well, but that is only for an instantaneous point in time. They are not the same thing.

Active component in resistors and capacitors?
Resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes are all passive components.
What is the relationship between capacitors in series and resistors in series?
resistor isdefined as the opposing the current flow in a circuit. capacitor is defined as the store the electric field in one forth of the cycle and the another quarter cycle stored energy will be released
How is the resistor behaved at high frequency?
The major problem with resistors at high frequencies is for wire-wound (power) resistors, that will act as inductors at high frequencies. In addition, very small resistors, like chip resistors, can also exhibit capacitive effects. Special high frequency resistors are designed to offset these effect.[1]
How do the components in electric circuits affect the electric current?
Components such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors can affect electric current by either impeding the flow (resistors), storing charge (capacitors), or inducing voltage (inductors). These components change the overall characteristics of the circuit, affecting the amount of current that flows through it.
What are IPDs?
IPD is an abbreviation for integrated passive device, which contains capacitors, resistors, inductors, and other components on a printed-circuit board.
What is RC elements?
Electrical elements are conceptual abstractions representing idealized electrical components, such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors, used in the analysis of electrical networks.(wikipedia)RC elements is the elements consisting of resistors and capacitors
What resistors do in oscillator circuit?
The same thing they do in every circuit, resist the flow of electricity. That being said there are Many types of ossilators, and they can use resistors for many purposes.
Why RC circuit is preferred over RL circuit in waveshaping?
There is no true advantage of RC circuits over RL circuits, as they perform different functions. RC circuits contain resistors and capacitors, while RL circuits contain resistors and inductors.
What happens to energy in a curcuit?
In a circuit, electrical energy is converted into other forms of energy as it flows through components like resistors, capacitors, and inductors. Some energy may be dissipated as heat by resistors, while capacitors and inductors store and release energy in the form of electric and magnetic fields. Overall, energy is conserved in a circuit, but its form may change as it interacts with circuit elements.
How does energy flow s through a electromagnetic circuit?
In an electromagnetic circuit, energy flows from a power source through the circuit components such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors. The energy is transferred through the circuit as electrical currents and magnetic fields, with some energy converted into other forms such as heat in resistors or stored in capacitors and inductors. Ultimately, the energy is dissipated or utilized to perform work within the circuit.
How will amps and current differ in a series if you get resistors with different resistance?
-- "Amps" and "current" are the same thing. Electric current is measured in units of Amperes. -- The current is always the same at every point in a series circuit, no matter how many resistors of the same or different values are in the circuit.
What are the disadvantages of integrated circuits?
The disadvantages of integrated circuits include the limited range of IC resistors. Another disadvantage is that inductors cannot be formed using integrated circuits.
