  • The deceptively simple wire coil that proves incredibly useful in the world of electronics - the inductor's ability to store energy in an electromagnetic field is the key to making transformers, electromagnets, and many more components. It truly is an awesome device!

    Here we are, nearly 6 YEARS after this was posted and it's still as good if not better than many of the other informational/instructional videos out there.

      I can make a loud horn with an electromagnet a capacitor and a diode and a tiny needle it works by the capacitor at the wires and a diode going to the electromagnet. The needle is taped or screwed in place when power is applied the electromagnet try's to pull the metal needle and the screw pushes it back down and it repeats it super fast on the sound plate and it makes an Anh Anh sound

      +RenaissanceMan929 You'd be surprised at how good instructional videos of the 50s are. For example, learning how a differential works.

    Excellent video! The teacher assumes that the viewer doesn't already know the information. Ideas are presented in a straight, relaxed, and down to earth fashion. An effective presentation!

    Brilliant! The oscilloscope visuals finally made me grasp why audio equalisers using inductors attenuate high frequencies!

    As an instructor of industrial electricity, I appreciate your presentation. Clear, lay terms and easy to follow. You paint a clear picture that anyone of my students can understand. Thanks for the videos.

  • @bun72642

    This video was made 13 years ago and yet one of the best one I found on inductor. it's always the old videos : )

    @fieldho 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks, although I've studied electronic technology, as a hobby, for some 30 years, I really appreciate the work devoted to explaining the basics in these videos. The older I get, I find that my memory sometimes has a tendency to color the facts and it's handy to have simple explanations, like these videos, to see through the fog of age. I wish these were around when I was younger. I'm glad younger students can cultivate their electronic interest through such a obtainable media.

  • @devinmccloud

  • @pinarellolimoncello
    @pinarellolimoncello 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you for your brilliant, its the first bit of electronics I've ever started to comprehend , I will be subscribing and following a lot more of the videos. Far too many youtube videos have awful back ground music and narration that is far too fast to keep up with late knowledge gaps or jumps, so thanks again for making it easier to follow.

  • @n2gpin
    @n2gpin 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Good stuff, very well explained - with one exception...
    if the current flow is instantaneously interrupted and the field collapses, it causes current to flow in the reverse direction as when the inductor was charged....known as counter emf. I don't know if that detail was left out for ease of understanding, but I couldn't let it go - Thanks for posting these videos, they're very good at getting the concept of how these components work across in an easy to digest manner.

  • @ABCElevator1989
    @ABCElevator1989 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    this is a great video. as you can see on the scope how the square wave turned out after it passed through the inductor and how its shape was changed. this is due in part by when current is first applied to an inductor, it is at its maximum and slowly diminishes because of saturation. Capacitors are the exact opposite they are at minimum when current is first applied but then they gradually build up to the potential.

    back in mid 70s at my junior high school, I met a guy named Scott who presented me a cigar box and encouraged me to push the button....an eerie long whine emanated out of the box to my delight...and Scott lifted the lid to reveal a circuit that he had built himself to maker the noise....we became great friends at that point
