Q166 / 180 · KCET 2011 · Physics

The energy stored in an inductor of self inductance $L$ henry carrying a current of $I$ ampere is

  • A
    $\frac{1}{2} L^{2} I$
  • Correct answer
    B
    $\frac{1}{2} L I^{2}$
  • C
    $L I^{2}$
  • D
    $L^{2} I$

Solution

The energy stored in an inductor $U=\frac{1}{2} L I^{2}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
