Yeah they are completely opposite as far as the electrical properties are concerned....like Capacitor stores voltage and inductor stores current...and also their behaviour with AC voltages is completely opposite

Oh ok. So they're similar to a capacitor..

they block AC instead of DC

Capacitance is the property exhibited by a circuit of storing energy in the form of an electro-static field.

Inductance is the property exhibited by a circuit of storing energy in the form of a magnetic field.

Both store energy, but in completely different ways.

Put a 1000:mu:F capacitor, crank up the frequency and it'll become inductive past a few MHz.

I think we may have beaten the inductor to death.
