    when source is applied across inductor, the magnetic field/flux is produced and voltage is induced as per faraday law of induction and energy is stored in magnetic field.

    can u plz elaborate it more??

    the opposing field produced in the inductor realigns the atoms thus energy is stored in the inductor

    inductor never stores an energy just it dissipate energy when source is present,if you observe capacitor, absence of source it can produces the some voltage like a battery. but it is not in the situation of an inductor.so inductor dissipate energy not stores energy.

    dissipation is done in the case of resistor..not in case of inductor...

    my pal there is some interpretation here

    inductor is a storage device just like capacitor

    it stores current and not voltage get it right

    how ?i mean its a magnetic field energy dissipates not heat energy like resistor. in practical situation compare with capacitor it stores energy of electrical not magnetic energy .so inductor generates magnetic filed in presence of source.

    do inductors store the energy in form of KINETIC energy ????

    sorry my pal

    THIS IS IT
    magnetic energy is produced in the inductor when voltage is applied basic science

    when voltage is applied there is a flow of current through the inductor

    this current flows through the inductor it opposes the magnetic field and so there is a delay in the current to reach its peak value in the inductor

    the current follows the voltage by an angle of 90 deg

    this is how current lags in an inductor

    then now consider current at maximum when the voltage is turned off does current turn 0 in an instant nope

    because of the demagnetisisng effect there is a small delay in current turning to 0

    this how we know that inductor stores current if a change in voltage is found

    if you want more info try to study an RL discharging circuit with initial maximum current in inductor

    Current = Flow of electrons in a direction. I dont think you can store the "flow". There's a serious misconception we all have.

    Agreed with Prototype.
    Inductor never stores current ... it stores the energy.

    jeffrey samueli will rephrase my statement as inductor stores energy in the form of kinetic energy

    Kinetic energy is always mechanical.

    No.Both inductor and capacitor are energy storing.As you said capacitor during active phase may develop voltage like battery so is the case with the inductor.When energized inductor is put across a passive circuit,it will act as a current source.

    I didnot get you.Mate,L and C are energy storing called active devices is so basic concept like i2r law in electrical.Its true inductor stores energy in form of maganetic feild but that doesnot mean it can't be an electrical source.Is not magnetic field convetable to electrical form and this is what happens in various generators.The dissipation you are talking about is not like that of resistor.It is infact magnetic flux leakage.
