Answer:
7.8min
Explanation:
The potential difference across an inductor inductance L is
[tex]v_L = L\frac{\Delta i_L}{\Delta t}[/tex]
[tex]\Delta i_L[/tex] is change in curent in a time [tex]\Delta t[/tex]
so, time taken for the solenoid to reach it operating current is
[tex]\Delta t = \frac{L}{v_L} \Delta i_L[/tex]
Given that,
Inductance of solenoid is L = 5.6H
Voltage across solenoid is v(L) = 1.2L
Δi(L) = 100A
substitute the values in the formula
Time taken for the solenoid to reach it operating current is
[tex]\Delta t = \frac{(5.6H)}{1.2V} (100A)[/tex]
= 466.6s
convert to minute
= 466.6 /60
= 7.77min
≅ 7.8min
