flux’ as illustrated by the dashed loops which link with the conducting
circuit, just as streamlines and isobars are visualised in the vicinity of
aerodynamic and meteorological systems, respectively.
If the current I is forced to change we imagine the number of
these representational flux lines to change. The EMF which appears in
the conducting circuit, due to change of the magnetic flux that the
current itself is producing, is called the EMF of ‘self induction’. The
laws of Lenz state that this E M F opposes the change which causes it
and that it is proportional to the rate of change of flux linkage
(number of flux lines times number of turns linked by them).

more loss (curve 2) and indicates the theoretical lossless case (curve 3).
By reasoning as before it will be seen,
(i) At very low frequencies, since this is a parallel circuit, the high
reactance of C has least effect (draws least current) and the im-
pedance would tend to zero (2nf L) were it not for R.
(ii) At very high high frequencies the rising reactance of L causes it
to take less current and the falling reactance of C (equation 9)
dominates the parallel circuit, causing the impedance to ap-
proach zero.
