Question
The current through a 17 nH aluminum inductor is shown in Fig. 7.47. Sketch the resulting voltage waveform for \( t \geq 0 \), assuming the passive sign convention.

**Figure 7.47 Explanation:**

- **Graph Details:**
  - The graph represents current \( i(t) \) in amperes (A) versus time \( t \) in microseconds (\( \mu s \)).
  - The y-axis (vertical) measures the current in amperes, ranging from 2 A to 5 A.
  - The x-axis (horizontal) measures time in microseconds, ranging from 2 to 8 \(\mu s\).

- **Graph Description:**
  - The current \( i(t) \) starts at 5 A at \( t = 2 \mu s \) and decreases linearly to 2 A at \( t = 4 \mu s \).
  - From \( t = 4 \mu s \) to \( t = 8 \mu s \), the current remains constant at 2 A.

This information can be used to sketch the voltage waveform according to the passive sign convention.
