@verpies Therein lies the problem doesn't it and this strange concept of "nothing" always seems to appear as if by magic.
If you took the time to study the material from that link that I had provided in my last message, it would not seem magical to you. A field does not need something to exist other than a volume of space but there is nothing there is there, lol?.
All of this elucidated in the aforementioned link. Our Euclidean space is a reference system created by the motion of gravitating matter. It is not an aquarium that we all swim in... Even what appears to us as nothing is composed of discrete units of time associated with discrete units of space in 1:1 ratio that we commonly know as the speed of light (c). Any deviation from that 1:1 ratio constitutes observable phenomena like force fields and even atoms. I guess the obvious question is what causes the "energy stored as magnetic field (manifesting as current)" to manifest a current?.
Electric current is a 1D motion which cancels the 3D inward motion of gravitating matter and leaves a 2D deviation. This 2D deviation is the magnetic field. FYI: 1D deviation results in electric phenomena and 3D deviation results in gravitational phenomena. So inductance is the ratio of magnetic flux to current?.
Yes, and more precisely: inductance is the ratio of magnetic flux to ampturns ...and there are many other, equally true definitions, too. My favorite one is L = t 3/s 3 , see here for more units. I know, that going to the roots is very interesting and all, but this is not a right place to discuss fundamental physics. This is an engineering forum geared towards construction of FE devices and this thread is about Smudge's device and its variations. If you really want to discuss the fundamentals of the universe then register on this forum and post your questions there to a user named bperet and even to me, if you want. ...just not here.
