The Inductance
A. Find the voltage across the inductor for . (Assume the passive sign
convention.)
B. Find the power at the terminals of the inductor when =200 [ms].
C. Is the inductor absorbing or delivering power at =200 [ms]?
D. Find the energy stored in the inductor at =200 [ms].
E. Find the maximum energy stored in the inductor and the time (in
milliseconds) when it occurs.

• The two series-connected capacitors in Figure are connected to the terminals
of a black box at t = 0. The resulting current ( ) for >0 is known to be
