Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

An inductor of 25 H has a current of 4 A flowing through it. Calculate the energy stored in the inductor. Then, if the current falls to 2 A suddenly, how much energy is stored now?

💡 Hint: Use the energy storage formula.

Challenge 2 Hard

Explain how the time constant τ affects the performance of an RL circuit if the resistance is increased, keeping the inductance constant.

💡 Hint: Relate τ to L and R.
