I cannot emphasize enough how amazing your videos are. you are 100% of the reason why I am understand this right now and I cannot thank you enough.

I am re-learning everything from scratch, and it is really much much better than what I was taught initially. Thanks for everything and keep up the good work! Thanks Guru'ji

Concept was beautifully explained....Thanks....

What is inductance in a coil? I mean the magnetic field a coil generates is inductance or emf generated in the coil is inductance??

[tedlahm]

Current lags voltage by 90 degrees and resisting change in current (in an inductor)
thru self induced voltage?

The math is much too difficult for an early learner. Thank you

Testing whether someone is proficient in math is not the go, even though that is needed.

[marksebastian]

Use an example that you can go to the bench and measure.
