Part A
How transients are produced in an electric circuit?
Answer
Transients are produced in an electric circuit due to the presence of energy storage elements (inductors and capacitors) when the circuit undergoes a sudden change in its state, such as switching operations or source variations. These elements cannot change their stored energy instantaneously, leading to a temporary transition period before the circuit reaches a new steady state.
Define time constant of RL circuit. Give expression.
Answer
The time constant of an RL circuit is defined as the time taken for the current to reach approximately 63.2% of its maximum steady-state value during charging, or to decay to approximately 36.8% of its initial value during discharging. The expression is:
where L is the inductance in Henries and R is the resistance in Ohms.
