Question

An inductor of inductance L = 400 mH and resistors of resistances R1 = 2Ω and R2 = 2Ω are connected to a battery of emf 12V as shown in the figure. The internal resistance of the battery is negligible. Theswitch S is closed at t = 0. The potential drop across L as a function of time is
       

Options

A.6e-5tV
B.e-3tV
C.6(1 - e-t/0.2)V
D.12e-5tV

Solution

          

E = L + R2 × I2
I2 = Io(1-e-t/tc) ⇒   
Io = = 6A     (at steady state inductor will show no impedance) 
tc  =  = 0.2
I2 = 6(1 - e-t/0.2)
Potential drop across L = E − R2I2 = 12 - 2 × 6 (1 - e-bt) = 12 e-5t
