Solve Transient Analysis Problem: Find I0

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on solving a transient analysis problem related to current in an electrical circuit. The user has calculated the inductor current IL(t) as 6mA(1 - exp(-100000t)) by assuming iL=0 at t=0. However, they are struggling to determine how the initial current I0 is derived in the context of the problem. The user seeks assistance in understanding the calculation of I0. Clarification on this point is requested to complete the analysis.

i was trying to solve this question(file attached), but i can only come up with the answer:

i assumed iL=0 at t=0, hence arrived at this:

IL(t) = 6mA(1 - exp(-100000t))

i can't figure out how Io came about.

can someone come it my rescue and tell me how the I0 came into play.

Kind Regards,

anyone to help?
 
Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .
Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'
TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
Thread 'Correct statement about a reservoir with an outlet pipe'
The answer to this question is statements (ii) and (iv) are correct. (i) This is FALSE because the speed of water in the tap is greater than speed at the water surface (ii) I don't even understand this statement. What does the "seal" part have to do with water flowing out? Won't the water still flow out through the tap until the tank is empty whether the reservoir is sealed or not? (iii) In my opinion, this statement would be correct. Increasing the gravitational potential energy of the...
