John and Joe are obviously correct... and I... am an idiot.

Gentlemen, thanks for helping... it took me a while.. but now I've got it..

Consider a simple inductive cicuit with a 1v(p-to-p) AC source at
1Hz,and an inductor with Z=1ohm.

The inductors value would be 1ohm=2*pi*1Hz*L, so L= 1/2pi

Looking at the standard Voltage and Current drawings, we see current
lagging voltage by 90degrees.

Here's my problem. At 90 degrees, the applied voltage is 1volt. The
current is zero. di/dt is 1,

Tell me how you arrived at this di/dt.
