Current lags the voltage through an inductor.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In an inductor, current lags the voltage by 90 degrees. This is because the inductor stores energy in a magnetic field, and the current must build up this magnetic field before it can flow through the inductor. The amount of lag is proportional to the inductance of the inductor.<\/p>\n<p>Option A is incorrect because current and voltage are not in phase through an inductor.
