The switch S in Figure 20.27 is closed at t = 0 and the current at a reference time tref> 0 is Iref. If the circuit is changed as, described below and the switch is again dosed at t = 0, determine whether the current I at the same time would be greater than, less than, or equal to the original value of Iref. Indicate your answers wilt G. L. or E, respectively. (a) Both the battery voltage ε and the resistance R are doubled. (b) The inductance L b doubled. (c) The battery voltage ε. the resistance R, and the inductance L are each doubled.
