how does capacitor oppose sudden chane in voltage?
how does inductor oppose sudden change in current?

Answer Posted / sai

Because the relationship between voltage and current in a capacitor is:

i = C*dv/dt

An instantaneous change in the voltage across a capacitor would require that the rate of change of the voltage (dv/dt) be infinite, and hence the current would have to be infinite.

For inductors, the relationship is:

v = L*di/dt

In order for the rate of change of current to be infinite (instantaneous change), the applied voltage would have to be infinite.
