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 = is : 

- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
- Current growth in an circuit
When the switch is closed at , the current in a series circuit connected to a battery of emf is
The time constant is
We need the charge passed through the battery from to .
- Charge as integral of current
Substitute :
- Evaluate the integrals
First integral:
Second integral:
So,
Hence,
Now using ,
- Match with options
This corresponds to:
So the correct option is B.
