Question
In the circuit diagram shown
- time constant is L/R
- time constant is 2L/R
- steady state current in inductor is 2
/R
- steady state current in inductor is /R
/R
/R
The correct answer is: time constant is L/R
At steady state no resistance will be offered by inductor hence, time constant is L/R and steady state current in inductor is E/R.

A circuit consisting of a constant e.m.f. 'E', a self-induction 'L' and a resistance 'R' is closed at t = 0. The relation between the current I in the circuit and time t is as shown by curve 'a' in the figure. When one or more of parameters E, R & L are changed, the curve 'b' is obtained. The steady state current is same in both the cases. Then it is possible that
