    A coil of inductance 300 mH and resistance \[2\,\Omega \] is connected to a source of voltage 2V. The current reaches half of its steady state value is:

    A)  \[0.05\] s                                  

    B)  \[0.1\] s

    C)  \[0.15\] s                                  

    D)  \[0.3\] s

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    The current at any instant is given by \[I={{I}_{0}}\,(1-{{e}^{-Rt/L}})\] \[\frac{{{I}_{0}}}{2}\,={{I}_{0}}\,(1-{{e}^{-Rt/L}})\Rightarrow \,\frac{1}{2}\,=(1-{{e}^{-Rt/L}})\] \[{{e}^{-Rt/L}}\,=\frac{1}{2}\Rightarrow \,\frac{Rt}{L}\,=\ln 2\] \[\therefore \,\,t=\frac{L}{2}\,\ln 2=\frac{300\times {{10}^{-3}}}{2}\times 0.693\] \[=150\times 0.693\,\times {{10}^{-3}}\] \[t=0.10395s=0.1s\]
