In the circuit shown in figure, switch remains closed for long time. It is opened at time t = 0. Match the following two columns at
second.

Column I | Column II | ||
(A) | Potential differences across inductor | (I) | 9 V |
(B) | Potential difference across resistance | (II) | 4.5 V |
(C) | Potential difference across resistance | (III) | 6 V |
(D) | Potential difference between points B and C | (IV) | None of these |

Steady state current through inductor,

Now, this current decays exponentially across inductor and two resistors.

Given time is half-life time. Hence, current will remain 1.5 A.

In the beginning
After one half-life time
