JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 -6. Electromagnetic induction

An inductor coil stores \(64\, {J}\) of magnetic field energy and dissipates energy at the rate of \(640\, {W}\) when a current of \(8\, {A}\) is passed through it. If this coil is joined across an ideal battery, find the time constant of the circuit in seconds

  1. A \(0.4\)
  2. B \(0.8\)
  3. C \(0.125\)
  4. D \(0.2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(0.2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{U}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{Li}^{2}=64 \Rightarrow \mathrm{L}=2\) \(\mathrm{i}^{2} \mathrm{R}=640\) \(\mathrm{R}=\frac{640}{(8)^{2}}=10\) \(\tau=\frac{\mathrm{L}}{\mathrm{R}}=\frac{1}{5}=0.2\)
