Question

A circuit consists of a resistor with resistance R_a and an inductor with inductance La connected in series to an ideal battery. Initially, the switch is open and no current flows through the circuit. At t=0, the circuit's switch abruptly closes. Determine the expression for the transient current as a function of time t in terms of R_a, L_a, and the steady-state current I_s.

Accepted Answer

I=I_s(1-e^-[R_a^/L_a^]t)

Answer

I=I_s(1-e^-[L_a^/R_a^]t)

Answer

I=I_s(e^-[R_a^/L_a^]t)

Answer

I=I_s(e^-[L_a^/R_a^]t)
