Question: In a circuit with an inductor, what is the time constant defined as?
Options:
L/R
R/L
L*R
R+L
Correct Answer: L/R
Solution:
The time constant for an inductor is defined as L/R, where L is inductance and R is resistance.

In a circuit with an inductor, what is the time constant defined as?
Inductance – Inductance is a property of an inductor that quantifies its ability to store energy in a magnetic field when electric current flows through it.
Resistance – Resistance is a measure of the opposition to the flow of electric current in a circuit.
Time Constant – The time constant in an RL circuit (inductor and resistor) is the time it takes for the current to reach approximately 63.2% of its final value after a voltage is applied.
