Question: In a series RL circuit, what happens to the current when the voltage is suddenly applied?

Options:

  1. It instantly reaches maximum value
  2. It increases linearly
  3. It increases exponentially
  4. It remains constant

Correct Answer: It increases exponentially

Solution:

In a series RL circuit, the current increases exponentially due to the inductor\'s opposition to changes in current.

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a series RL circuit, what happens to the current when the voltage is suddenly applied?
  • Inductance – The property of an inductor that opposes changes in current, causing the current to rise gradually rather than instantaneously.
  • Exponential Growth – The behavior of current in an RL circuit when voltage is applied, characterized by an exponential increase over time.
  • Time Constant – The time it takes for the current to reach approximately 63.2% of its maximum value, determined by the inductance and resistance in the circuit.
