4.tutorial 4 Transient

The document contains 10 questions regarding transient analysis of circuits after a switch opens or closes. Various circuits are shown in figures 1 through 10. For each question, the document provides the circuit diagram, asks to determine a current, voltage, or rate of change after the switch opens or closes at t=0, and gives the answer. Questions involve determining currents or voltages for t>0 after a switch opens or closes in RL, RC, RLC, and other circuits.

Q1. The switch is closed for a long time. At t=0, the switch is opened. Find i(t) at t>0. [Ans:
i(t)= 4e-16t A]

Q6. A 50 Hz, 400 V (peak value) sinusoidal voltage is applied at t = 0 to a series RL circuit

any instant ‘t’. Calculate the value of the transient current 0.01 sec after switching on. [Ans: i
= 6.33e-25t + 6.35sin(314t – 1.49), 4.93 A]

moved to from 1 at t=0. Assume a steady state current of 1 A in the RL circuit when the switch
was at position 1. [Ans: i = 1.4e-1000t + 1.345sin(314t-0.304)]

t=2.14 ms. Obtain an expression for i. Also, find the value of current after time 1 ms from the
switching instant. [Ans: i = 0.93e-500t + 5.32sin(314t + 1.682) A, 5.414 A]

t=0. Obtain v(t). [Ans: v(t) = - 4.896e4.3t + 14.896e-5.3t V]

Q10. Refer Fig. 10. With switch open, steady state is reached with v = 100sin(314t) V. The
switch is closed at t=0. The circuit is allowed to come to steady state again. Determine the
steady state current and complete solution of transient current. [Ans. iss = 0.0176cos(314t) (at
t>0), i = 17.6cos(314t) - 0.6cos(1.37x103t) + 13.7sin(1.37x103t) mA.]
