Answer to Problem 32.64AP
Explanation of Solution
Given info: The induced voltage is 10.0 V, the resistance of the resistor is 4.00 Ω and the inductance of the inductor is 1.00 H.
The inductor has no resistance. If the switch is closed for a long time, then inductor will reach saturation and voltage passes through the inductor. Hence, it behaves as a short circuit.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the inductor behaves as the short circuit because of no resistance.
(b)
The current carried by the inductor.

Given info: The induced voltage is 10.0 V, the resistance of the resistor is 4.00 Ω and the inductance of the inductor is 1.00 H.
The figure of the circuit diagrammed referred from P31.15 is shown below.
Figure (1)
The net resistance for parallel combination is,
1R'=1R+12RR'=2R3
Here,
R' is the net resistance for parallel combination.
R is the resistance of the circuit.
The net resistance is connected in series with R for parallel combination is,
Rnet=R+R' (1)
Here,
Rnet is the net resistance is connected in series.
Substitute 2R3 for R' in equation (1).
Rnet=R+2R3 (2)
Substitute 4.00 Ω for R in equation (2) to find the Rnet.
Rnet=4.00 Ω+2(4.00 Ω)3=6.67 Ω
Formula to calculate the current of battery is,
Ib=εRnet
Here,
Ib is the battery current.
ε is the induced voltage.
Substitute 10.0 V for ε and 6.67 Ω for Rnet in equation (3) to find the Ib.
Ib=10.0 V6.67 Ω=1.499 A≈1.50 A
The voltage across the parallel combination of resistors is,
V=ε−IbR (6)
Substitute 1.50 A for Ib, 10.0 V for ε and 4.00 Ω for R in equation (6) to find the V.
V=10.0 V−(1.50 A)(4.00 Ω)=4.00 V
Formula to calculate the current though the inductor is,
Ii=V2R (7)
Substitute 4.00 V for V and 4.00 Ω for R in equation (7) to find the Ii.
Ii=4.00 V2(4.00 Ω)=0.500 A
Conclusion:
Therefore, the current carried by the inductor for t<0 is 0.500 A.
(c)
The energy stored in the inductor.

Answer to Problem 32.64AP
Explanation of Solution
Given info: The induced voltage is 10.0 V, the resistance of the resistor is 4.00 Ω and the inductance of the inductor is 1.00 H.
Formula to calculate the energy stored in the inductor is,
Ui=12LIi2
Substitute 1.00 H for L and 0.500 A for Ii to find the Ui.
Ui=12(1.00 H)(0.500 A)2=0.125 J
Thus, the energy stored in the inductor for t<0 is 0.125 J.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the energy stored in the inductor for t<0 is 0.125 J.
(d)
The energy previously stored in the inductor after the switch is opened.
(d)

Answer to Problem 32.64AP
Explanation of Solution
Given info: The induced voltage is 10.0 V, the resistance of the resistor is 4.00 Ω and the inductance of the inductor is 1.00 H.
When switch is opened, the energy stored in the inductor will dissipate through resistor R and 2R. Thus, the energy becomes 0.125 J of the additional internal energy in the R and 2R. in the middle branch.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the energy becomes 0.125 J of the additional internal energy in the R and 2R. in the middle branch after switch is opened.

(e)

Answer to Problem 32.64AP
Answer The graph of the current in the inductor for t≥0 and label the initial and final values and the time constant.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The graph of the current verses time shows the variation of the current in the circuit with time and tells the nature of the current.
Explanation:
Given info: The induced voltage is 10.0 V, the resistance of the resistor is 4.00 Ω and the inductance of the inductor is 1.00 H.
After time t=0, the resistance of the circuit will be,
R1=R+2R=3R
Formula to calculate the time constant is,
t=LR1 (8)
Substitute 3R for R1 and 1.00 H for L to find the t.
t=1.00 H3R (9)
Substitute 4.0 Ω for R in equation (9) to find the t.
t=1.00 H3×4.0 Ω=0.083 s
The current flowing through the inductor at time t is,
I=I0e−RLt
Substitute 0.500 A for I0 and 12.0 Ω for R1 and 0.083 s for t in equation (10).
I=(0.500 A)e−(12.0 Ω)1.0 H(0.083 s)
Thus, the graph of the current (the initial and final values) in the inductor for t≥0 and the time constant from equation (11) is shown below.
Figure (2)
The graph shows that current decays with exponentially with time constant. The current decreases from 0.500 A towards zero because time constant goes to zero so, the final value of the current gets zero.
