Inductive reactance
Due to the continuous variation of the magnetic field surrounding the wire coil in an alternating current (AC) system, a back electromotive force (emf) is induced. This back emf alternates its direction, resulting in inductive reactance, also known as bucking.

Induction motor
An alternating current (AC) motor designed with a primary winding, known as the stator, connected to the power source, while a secondary winding, referred to as the rotor, carries induced current. This specific motor configuration is employed for the rotation of the anode in rotating anode X-ray tubes.

Induction coil
The objective of this apparatus is to amplify voltages. It comprises two distinct conductor coils: a primary coil with a smaller number of turns, and a secondary coil with a significantly greater number of turns. Both coils are meticulously wound around an iron core and meticulously insulated from each other. This device is commonly known…

Infusing
Infusion is a process of extracting flavors or nutrients from a substance by steeping it in a liquid. This is commonly done with spices, herbs, tea, and coffee. To make an infusion, the substance is added to a container with hot liquid, covered, and left to steep for a period of time. The liquid is…

Ice cream
Ice cream is a frozen dessert that can be made using cream or a combination of cream and custard base. Flavorings or fruits are often added before freezing. It is commonly made by churning the mixture in a machine, but it can also be made in ice-cube trays. Hand-churning produces the smoothest texture, while battery…
