← TechnologyWhich outcome arises when an inductor is abruptly removed from a DC circuit?
A)Voltage spike damaging semiconductors✓
B)Current mirroring stabilizing the voltage
C)Resonance occurring in the circuit
D)Oscillations decaying naturally
💡 Explanation
When an inductor is suddenly removed, current interruption causes flyback voltage spiking because Lenz's law maintains current flow via rapidly increasing voltage, which can damage connected semiconductors. Therefore voltage spikes damage occurs, rather than mirroring, resonance, or decayed oscillations that depend on circuit parameters and energy dissipation elements.
