Answer:

(A). The current in the circuit is 19.25 mA.

(B). The store energy in the inductor is 7.04 μJ.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Voltage = 8.2 V

Inductor = 38 mH

Resistance = 150 Ω

Time t = 0.110 ms

The battery has negligible internal resistance, so that the total resistance in the circuit is 150 ohms. Then use this equation for current at time t in terms of inductance

We need to calculate the current

Using formula of current


I(t)=(V)/(R)*(1-e^{-t*(R)/(L)})

Put the value into the formula


I(t)=(8.2)/(150)*(1-e^{-0.110*10^(-3)*(150)/(38*10^(-3))})


I(t)=0.01925\ A


I(t) = 19.25\ mA

(B). We need to calculate the store energy in the inductor

Using formula of energy


E=(1)/(2)LI^2

Put the value into the formula


E=(1)/(2)*38*10^(-3)*(0.01925)^2


E=7.04*10^(-6)\ J

{tex]E=7.04\ \mu J[/tex]

Hence, (A). The current in the circuit is 19.25 mA.

(B). The store energy in the inductor is 7.04 μJ.
