Answer:
Correct Answer: 9. (a)
Solution:
- (a) $e=-L \frac{di}{dt}$
During 0 to $\frac{T}{4}, \frac{di}{dt}=$ const.
$\therefore e=-ve$
During $\frac{T}{4}$ to $\frac{T}{2}, \frac{di}{dt}=0$
$\therefore e=0$
During $\frac{T}{2}$ to $\frac{3 T}{4}, \frac{di}{dt}=$ const.
$\therefore e=+ve$
Thus graph given in option (a) represents the variation of induced emf with time.
Inductance does not play any role till there is a constant current flowing in the circuit. It opposes any change in the current in the circuit.
