Sol. The equivalent inductance L = 500mH Just before opening the switch, current th4ough the inductors is
I M =
=2A
Potential drop across the resistor is 2 × 100 = 200 V
Hence, across capacitor potential difference is zero.
∴ Energy stored u =
L(2) 2 =
×500×10 –3 ×2 2 = 1 J
∴
L
=
C
= 1 J
⇒
=
I M
= 2
= 200 V
ω = 
=
= 200 rad/s
The impedance of the LC circuit at ω = 100 rad/s is
Z =
=
(j 2 = – 1)
With the given value of ω , ω 2 × LC = 
∴ Z = j × 100 ×
×0.5 = j
Ω
The peak current =
= 3A
and the current lags w.r.t source emf by a phase of ( π /2).
