Question: An RL circuit is connected to a battery, as shown in figure. Switch S is initially closed and is opened at time t = 0.

An RL circuit is connected to a battery, as shown in figure. Switch S is initially closed and is opened at time t = 0.

a. Find the inductor current iL (t) for t > 0.

b. What are the initial and final (t = ?) values of the stored energy in the inductor? What is the energy stored in the inductor as a function of time?

c. What is the power dissipated in the resistor as a function of time? What is the total energy dissipated in the resistor?
