For the circuit shown the switch has been open for a very lo
Solution
Ans)
For t<0 the circuit is in steady state ,inductor acts as short circuit and capacitor acts as open circuit ,using this we can find the initial current and voltages
i(0-)=Vs/(50+100+200)=30/350=85.71 mA
i(0-)=85.71 mA
As inductor current cannot change instantaneously
i(0+)=i(0-)=85.71 mA
i(0+)=85.71 mA
--------------------------------
Voltage across 200 ohm resistor is equal to voltage across capacitor,so
v(0+)=i(0+)*200=85.71m*200=17.143 V
v(0+)=17.143 V
----------------------------------
For t>0 the steady state currents are when switch is closed 100 ohm resistor is shorted,so
i(infinity)=Vs/(50+200)=30/250=120 mA
i(infinity)=120 mA
------------------------
v(infinity)=i(infinity)*200=120m *200=24 V
v(infinity)=24 V
-----------------------
The voltage across inductor for t=0+ is
VL=Vs-i(0+)*(50+200)=30-85.714m*(250)=30-21.428=8.571 V
VL=8.571 V
Now using the relation VL=L di/dt
di/dt(0+)=VL/L=8.571/0.2=42.857 A/s
di/dt(0+)=42.857 A/s
------------------------------------------
As current through the capacitor is zero for t=0+
dv/dt=i/C=0
