Read the RL-transient class notes.


For the circuit shown,

  • R = 560 Ω
  • L = 10 mH

For the RL circuit, the source has been at an initial current value of Ii = 0.4 A for a long time.
At t = 0, the source current abruptly jumps to If = 1.7 A.

Determine the expression for the inductor current as a function of time, for t > 0.

Calculate the inductor current and voltage at t = 80.36 μs.
