Question

Inductors in parallel. Two inductors L1 = 1.22 H and L2 = 2.09 H are connected in parallel and separated by a large distance so that the magnetic field of one cannot affect the other. (a) Calculate the equivalent inductance. (Hint: Review the derivations for resistors in parallel and capacitors in parallel.Which is similar here?) (b) What is the generalization of (a) for N = 36 similar inductors L = 3.05 H in parallel?


(a) for this 1/L1+ 1/L2= what i got is 1.298 which is wrong

(B) for this one Segma from i=1 to n=36 of 1/Li what i got is 11.80 and also wrong

please give me the exact answer
life saver here

Explanation / Answer

L1 = 1.22 H

L2 = 2.09 H

When they are connected in parallel

a) The equilent inductance, 1/L = 1/L1 + 1/L2

L = L1L2 / (L1 + L2) = 0.77 H

b) If L = 3.05 H

If 36 number of incuctors are connected in parallel, then

1/L = (L^36) / (36*L)

L = (36*L) / (L^36) = 4.035 * e-16 H
