I solved it :p

Homework Statement

The Attempt at a Solution



I need help with part (a)

Current in LR circuit, [tex]i = i_o (1 - e^{-t/\tau})[/tex] and [tex]\tau = \frac{L}{R}[/tex]

so, [tex]\frac{dq}{dt} = i_0 (1 - e^{-t/\tau})[/tex]

integrating it is not giving me the correct answer.

just integrate with respect to t, dq/dt = ... dq = ...dt
 
its solved ... i wrote it on the top
