A coil of inductance
and resistance
is connected to a battery of emf
. A resistance of
is connected parallel to the coil. Now, at same instant the connection of the battery is switched OFF. Then, the amount of heat generated in the coil after switching OFF the battery is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Energy, 

Now, after switching OFF the battery, this energy is dissipated in coil (resistance
) and resistance
in the ratio of their resistances
or
). Therefore, heat generated in the coil.
