An inductor coil wound uniformly has self-inductance ' L ' and resistance ' R '. The coil is broken into two identical parts. The two parts are then then connected in parallel across a battery of ' E ' volt of negligible internal resistance. The current through battery at steady state is
Options
- A2 E R
- B3 E R
- C4 E R
- DE R
Correct answer
C. 4 E R
Step-by-step solution
In DC, there is no use of inductance. Since the coil is broken into two identical points, each part will have resistance R 2 . When these are connected in parallel, their equivalent resistance will be R 4 . Hence the current I is given by = E R / 4 = 4 E R
