JEE Main 2021Alternating Current Question with Solution

From: JEE Main 2021 (Online) 25th July Morning Shift

Question

An inductor of 10 mH is connected to a 20V battery through a resistor of 10 k and a switch. After a long time, when maximum current is set up in the circuit, the current is switched off. The current in the circuit after 1 s is mA. Then x is equal to ___________. (Take e1 = 0.37)

Correct answer
74

Step-by-step explanation

mA

For LR - decay circuit





I = 2mA e1

I = 2 0.37 mA

mA

x = 74
