Solution
The correct option is BVRcos(ωt) At t=0, there is a steady current downward through the inductor i.e. i(0)=VR
For t≥0, krichhoff's law gave following for the LC circuit −Ld2Idt2=qC.....(i)
Here q is the charge on the lower plate of the capacitor and we know I=dqdt
so differentially equation (i), we get d2Idt2=−ILC=−ω2I...(ii)
The general solution (ii) is given by I=Imaxcos(ωt+ϕ)
Using initial condition of current i=VR, we get ϕ=0
So, I=VRcos(ωt)
