Which consequence results when a charged capacitor discharges rapidly through an inductor?

A)Electromagnetic oscillations are generated
B)Progressive dielectric breakdown in inductor
C)The inductor instantly becomes resistive
D)Capacitor retains substantial charge

💡 Explanation

Electromagnetic oscillations occur because energy is transferred between the capacitor's electric field and the inductor's magnetic field; this is LC oscillation. Therefore, oscillations result, rather than energy dissipation because resistance is ideally minimized in such circuits.
