An inductor stores energy in a magnetic field when current flows through it, which is referred to as charging. When the current decreases or is interrupted, the inductor releases that stored energy back into the circuit by inducing a voltage in the opposite direction, leading to discharging. This energy transfer can cause a brief surge in current, which is why protective components like diodes are often used in circuits involving inductors to prevent damage. The behavior of an inductor during charging and discharging is governed by the principles of electromagnetic induction.

Inductors are low pass devices, they conduct most easily at low frequencies. DC is the limiting case for low frequency AC: i.e. DC is the lowest possible AC frequency, zero Hz and thus conducts best through an inductor. Capacitors are high pass devices, they conduct most easily at high frequencies. Infinite frequency AC is the limiting case for high frequency AC. Infinity Hz would conduct best through a capacitor.
A capacitor typically charges quickly when connected to a voltage source, especially if the resistance in the circuit is low. Conversely, it discharges relatively quickly as well, depending on the resistance in the discharge path. The time it takes to charge or discharge is characterized by the time constant (τ = RC), where R is the resistance and C is the capacitance. Generally, capacitors can charge and discharge rapidly, but the specific rates depend on the circuit components involved.
An inductor looks like a piece of wire to DC. It will thus look like a resistor, and inductor properties do not apply.
the energy is stored in the magnetic field surrounding the inductor, which takes time to build up and time to collapse. when current is first applied, the absence of magnetic field opposes it until the field has built up. when current is removed, the built up magnetic field opposes it forcing current to flow until the field has collapsed.nothing happens instantly when dealing with fields, either magnetic or electrostatic.
both of these components connected in parallel will cause an oscillation of energy, meaning the capacitor will charge and then discharge through the inductor , which will then build up a magnetic field and discharge through the cap again , and this oscillation will go on for quite some time and then finally die out , and also if a multimeter is place across the cap it should short out , because it's as if you have connected a piece of wire right across it ...
A capacitor stores an electric charge. An inductor stores a magnetic charge.
discharge
"Charge?" The field produced by an inductor exists ONLY while the current flow is changing,
It will not remain "charged" for long. The speed of collapse of the magnetic field is related to the inductance, in Henries. A (physically) large inductor will retain energy for longer. (note that there is no "charge")
You can use moment of force in many concepts electronics, mechanically etc. in electronics one is to load an inductor to a tension and when you remove the power the inductor will discharge and produce a back EMF that discharge can produce a much higher voltage than the voltage that you applied to the inductor in the first place. in mechanics, a pendulum produce moment of force, a flywheel produce moment of force, when you spin it will keep on rotating until the moment of force wear out then it will stop

A rapid movement of excess charge from one place to another is known as an electrical discharge. This phenomena can result in lightning, electric sparks, or discharge in electronic devices.

what is an inductor used for
Since we know that inductance of an inductor depends on the length of inductor by the formula L=muAN*N/l, where l is the length of inductor. So by varying the length of inductor we say that inductance of inductor varies.
