7.Alternating Current
medium
An $LR$ circuit with a battery is connected at $t = 0$. Which of the following quantities is not zero just after the circuit
A
current in the circuit
B
magnetic field energy in the inductor
C
power delivered by the battery
D
$emf$ induced in the inductor
Solution
Initially at $\mathrm{t}=0$
the inductor will act as a open circuit and no current will pass through the circuit, hence, current in circuit $=0$
Magnetic field energy $=\frac{1}{2} L i^{2}=0,$ since $i=0$
Power delivered by battery $=V i=0$ since $i=0$
And emf induced $=L \frac{d i}{d t},$ since current is changing with time in inductor hence the
emf induced will be non-zero.
