- If the plots shown in Figure P4.19 are the voltageacross and the current through an ideal inductor,determine the inductance.arrow_forwardConsider the circuit shown in Figure P4.40. A voltmeter (VM) is connected across the inductance. The switch has been closed for a long time. When the switch is opened, an arc appears across the switch contacts. Explain why. Assuming an ideal switch and inductor, what voltage appears across the inductor when the switch is opened? What could happen to the voltmeter when the switch opens?arrow_forwardThe voltage waveform shown in Figure P4.24appears across a 100-mH inductor and a 500-μFcapacitor. Plot the capacitor and inductor currents,iC(t) and iL(t), assuming iL(0) = 0A.arrow_forward
