As shown in the figure, a battery of emf ∈ is connected to an inductor L and resistance R in series. The switch is closed at t = 0 . The total charge that flows from the battery, between t = 0 and t = t c ( t c is the time constant of the circuit) is:
Options
- A∈ L e R 2
- B∈ L R 2 1 - 1 e
- C∈ L R 2
- D∈ R e L 2
Correct answer
A. ∈ L e R 2
Step-by-step solution
q = ∫ 0 T c i d t = ∈ R t - e - t T c - 1 T c 0 T c = ∈ R T c + T c e - 1 - T c = ∈ R × 1 e × L R q = ∈ L R 2 e
