Q82 / 90 · JEE Main 2019 (12 Apr Shift 2) · Physics

Consider the LR circuit shown in the figure. If the switch S is closed at t=0 then the amount of charge that passes through the battery between t=0 and t=LR is:
Figure

  • A
    7.3 ELR2
  • B
    EL7.3R2
  • C
    2.7 ELR2
  • Correct answer
    D
     EL2.7R2

Solution

The current in the LR circuit at any time t is
I=ER1-e-RtL

Where E, R, L, I are the EMF, resistance, inductance and the current respectively.
∴ Charge flown through the circuit from time 0 to LR is 
(charge) ∆q=∫0LRI.dt=∫0LRER1-e-RtLdt
⇒∆q=ERt+LR e-RtL0LR
⇒∆q=ERLR+LRe-1-LR
⇒∆q=ER×LeR
⇒∆q=ELeR2=EL2.7R2

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
