A voltage source of 10V is connected to a load through a switch. The load is a combination of a resistor of 5Ω and an inductor of 2mH in series. The inductor has no current when the switch is closed. a. What is the voltage across the resistor at t = 0? What is the voltage across the inductor then? b. Can you see that the current through the inductor goes up with time? Does the voltage across the resistor go up with time? What happens to the voltage across the inductor over time? c. Does the inductor current have an upper limit?

 A voltage source of 10V is connected to a load through a switch.
The load is a combination of a resistor of 5Ω and an inductor of 2mH in series.
The inductor has no current when the switch is closed.


a. What is the voltage across the resistor at t = 0? What is the voltage
across the inductor then?
b. Can you see that the current through the inductor goes up with time?
Does the voltage across the resistor go up with time? What happens to
the voltage across the inductor over time?
c. Does the inductor current have an upper limit?
