Among the following, which is the right formula for decay in an inductive circuit?(a) i=I(1-e^-t/time constant)(b) i=I(1-e^t /time constant)(c) i=(1-e^-t /time constant)(d) i=I(e^-t /time constant)This question was posed to me in unit test.My question is taken from Analysis of Growth & Decay topic in division Inductance in a DC Circuit of Basic Electrical Engineering

Answer»

Correct option is (d) i=I(e^-t /time CONSTANT)

Explanation: The correct formula for decay in an inductive circuit is i=I(e-t /time constant). As the time increases, the CURRENT in the INDUCTOR decreases, the VOLTAGE also increases.
