Definitions:

Resistance

The opposition to the flow of electric current, measured in ohms, affecting how much current flows through a circuit.

Inductor

An inductor is a passive electronic component that stores energy in a magnetic field when electric current flows through it, used in various filtering, tuning, and energy storage applications.

Lenz's Law

A principle in electromagnetism stating that induced currents will flow in a direction that opposes the change causing them.

Polarity

The characteristic of having two opposed attributes or poles, commonly used in reference to the direction of electrical current or magnetism.
