That fraction is > 1.0 ?dwn said:
So what is the general form of the equation describing this decay?
Which resistor carries that current?dwn said:
Guessing is not advisable. Don't you have some way to work it out?dwn said:

An RL circuit with current source is an electrical circuit that contains a resistor (R) and an inductor (L) in series, with a constant current source providing a constant flow of current. It is a type of circuit commonly used in electronics and electrical engineering.
The main difference between an RL circuit with current source and an RC circuit with current source is the presence of an inductor in the former and a capacitor (C) in the latter. Inductors and capacitors have opposite effects on the flow of current, with inductors resisting changes in current and capacitors allowing current to flow more easily.
An RL circuit with current source will exhibit transient behavior over time, as the inductor takes time to build up its magnetic field and resist changes in current. This can result in a delay in the response of the circuit to changes in the current source.
The time constant of an RL circuit with current source is equal to the ratio of the inductance (L) to the resistance (R) of the circuit. It represents the amount of time it takes for the current in the circuit to reach 63.2% of its maximum value when a constant current source is connected.
The behavior of an RL circuit with current source can be described by an equation known as the differential equation of an RL circuit. This equation takes into account the effects of the inductor and resistor on the current in the circuit and can be solved using techniques such as Kirchhoff's laws and Laplace transforms.
