Answer:
Correct Answer: 3. (c)
Solution:
- Given circuit is a series
circuit In an circuit, current increases as
Now, energy stored in inductor is
where,
Given, rate of energy stored in inductor is equal to the rate of energy dissipation in resistor. So, after differentiating, we get
Taking log on both sides, we have
