Which of the following circuit elements will oppose the change in circuit current ?
Correct answer: B. Inductance
- A. Capacitance
- B. Inductance
- C. Resistance
- D. All of the above
Explanation
An inductor opposes any change in current by producing a back emf, according to v = L(di/dt). Resistance opposes current itself, not specifically its change.
