When measured, the voltage drop across an open series-connected inductor:
A) equals the source voltage
B) is minus what is dropped across the meter
C) varies with other components
D) is very low

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a series circuit, if an inductor is open (meaning there is a break in the circuit), no current flows through the circuit. Therefore, the entire source voltage appears across the open component, in this case, the inductor.
