An LR circuit consists of a 35-mH inductor, a resistance of 12 ohms, an 18-V battery, and a switch. What is the current 5.0 ms after the switch is closed

Current, I = 1.23 A

Explanation:

Given that,

Inductance, L = 35 mH

Resistance, R = 12 ohms

Potential difference, V = 18 V

We need to find current 5 ms after the switch is closed. Current in LR circuit is given by :

....(1)

Here,

is final current

is time constant

So, equation (1) becomes :

So, after 5 ms the current in the circuit is 1.23 A.
