Question

A coil of inductance 200 H and resistance 20Ω is connected to a constant voltage source. How soon in seconds will the coil current reach 50% of the steady state value?(ln2 = 0.693). Write upto two digits after the decimal point.

Solution

i=i0(1eRt/L)
i02=i0(1eRt/L)
eRt/L=12eRt/L=2RtL=ln(2)
t=LRln(2)=20020×0.693
= 6.93 sec
