Question

Consider the RL direct current circuit shown. The circuit contains R = 4.0 Ω,  L = 10 mH,
&  ε = 12 V. The circuit is charging.

(a) Determine the time constant for the circuit?

(b) What is the maximum current in the circuit?

(c) What is the current one time constant (t = τ )?

(d) When the current is 0.5 A, what is the strength of the magnetic field in the solenoid, with n = N/ℓ = 319x103 turns/m.  (    T×m/A)
