Inductor reluctance to change

01:05:31

Demonstrates one of an inductors properties. It's reluctance to change causing voltage spikes.

Im not 100% sure of its this what you want to demonstrate, check this http://everycircuit.com/circuit/6552343802544128

Possibly. The green line demonstrates the time it takes for the inductor to lower in resistance allowing current to pass. The blue line shows the discharge of the stored current in the inductor. I've heard this likened to a train. The inductor takes time and energy to get going and then it is reluctant to stop. Opposing change in either direction

It would have to be instant resistance change to ever look like that in the real world. Or maybe voltage change. Not certain about that. I'd have to test it.

Yeah, better test it

I added a voltage switch. Seems to have the same effect. A delay in change in either direction.

Switching the voltage versus switching the resistor seems to react different in reguard to the voltage spikes. That makes sense in reguard to a filter chokes use in a tube amplifier. To further smooth the voltage.
