Question

(10%) Problem 4: A 1.25 Hinductor in an RL circuit (with resistance 2.15 2 is initially fully charged. A switch is then thrown (between positions 1 and 2, see figure), which causes the inductor to discharge. The initial current through this discharging circuit is 4.8 A.

Express this value in seconds A 33% Part (c) Calculate the average power dissipated in W.

Explanation / Answer

a) energy = 0.5 Li^2

= 0.5*1.25*4.8^2

= 14.4 J

b) 1/4 = e^(-tR/L)

- ln 4 = -t *2.15/1.25

t = 1.25/2.15 * ln 4

= 0.806 s

c) average power dissipated

= iavg^2 R

average power = 2.15* (4.8^2+1.2^2)/2

= 26.3 W
