What is the relationship between voltage and current in an inductive circuit?

Current lags voltage in an inductive circuit. The angle by which it lags depends on the frequency of the AC, and on the relative size of the inductance compared to the resistance in the circuit.


What is the relationship between the current and voltage in a pure inductive circuit?

In a pure inductive circuit, the relationship between current and voltage is such that the current lags behind the voltage by a phase angle of 90 degrees. This means that the current and voltage are out of phase with each other, with the current reaching its peak value after the voltage has reached its peak value.


A circuit with a lagging current means the circuit is?

Inductive. Voltage (E) leads current (I) in an inductive (L) circuit and current (I) leads voltage (E) in a capacitive (C) circuit. (ELI the ICEman)


What cause the voltage t lead current in an ac circuit?

Voltage leads current or, more specifically current lags voltage, in an inductive circuit. This is because an inductor resists a change in current.


In a purely resistive ac circuit the current and voltage?

Voltage and current will be in phase for a purely resistive load. As a load becomes more inductive or capacitive, the phase angle between voltage and current will increase.


In RC circuits the voltage leads the current?

Inductive. Used to remember this by "Eli" the "ice" man. "(e) Voltage (l) (Inductive circuit) (i) current", the ,"(i) Current (c) (capacitive circuit) (e) voltage, man.


Why is capacitive voltage higher than inductive voltage in an R-L-C circuit?

It isn't necessarily so. The capacitive voltage is the product of the current and capacitive reactance, while the inductive voltage is the product of the current and the inductive reactance. So it depends whether the capacitive reactance is greater or smaller than the inductive reactance!


When a circuit is inductive the current has what voltage?

This doesn't make sense, "current" is "amperage" so the higher the voltage the lower the amperage, and the lower the voltage the higher the amperage.


Will the source voltage lead or lag the current in a circuit?

In an AC circuit, the source voltage can either lead or lag the current, depending on the type of load. Inductive loads cause the voltage to lag the current, while capacitive loads cause the voltage to lead the current.


What are the differences between resistive load and inductive load in terms of their impact on an electrical circuit?

A resistive load directly resists the flow of current in an electrical circuit, causing a voltage drop. An inductive load, on the other hand, creates a magnetic field that can store energy and cause a delay in current flow. This can lead to power factor issues and voltage spikes in the circuit.


Which component slow down the current in circuit?

An inductive load can cause current to lag voltage in an AC circuit. An increase in resistance will decrease amount of current flow.


In a series RLC circuit at frequencies above resonance is the circuit capacitive or inductive?

in series you XL, voltage leads the current, and in Parallel current leads the voltage. so your answer should reflect on this theory.
