Inductors -- typically in the form of coils -- are commonly used in many circuit applications. Their purpose is to store magnetic energy when a steady state current flows.
In a loop that forms a closed circuit, the changing magnetic field induces an electromotive force that drives the current. This phenomenon is called electromagnetic indu...
