Henry's inductance

Featured Replies

hey there, this is my first thread, i have registered here a long time ago, but i just read.
so lets make it short, i want some help in understanding the inductive impedance unit, here "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_(unit)"
I understood most of it but i dont get it how V.s/A is equal to s2/F and then "ohm.s"
we are studing this at school, we study holt physics, partially, we skipped some chapter because ministry of education took it out of curriculum.

Hi there Xblur.

 

I'm not really sure what your question is. Are you trying to get a better understanding of inductance, or just the Henry unit?

Hi there Xblur.

i want to get a better understanding of the unit, our teacher asked us to bring the profe of that unit, and i seached and found that on wikipedia.

 

 

Vs/A is the same as Vs^2/C and C/V is a Farad, so you have s^2/F

 

V is the same as A-Ohms (because V=IR), so Vs/A also gets you to Ohm-s

 

this cleared something but if you can add more i would appreciate it.

edit: and if you have other sources, please link them.

Most of what I gave you is in the wikipedia link, and the included link for Faradays

 

You can break down units by using equations, as I did with V=IR. Since they are equal, Volts must equal Amp-Ohms. Since V = L dI/dt, Volts must also be Henries * Amps/sec, or Henry = Volt-sec/Amp
