An Inductance L and a Resistance R Are Connected in Series

Multiple Choice

An inductance L and a resistance R are connected in series to an ideal battery.A switch in the circuit is closed at time t = 0, at which time the current is zero.The rate of increase of the energy stored in the inductor is a maximum:

A) just after the switch is closed
B) at the time t = L/R after the switch is closed
C) at the time t = 2L/R after the switch is closed
D) at the time t = (L/R) ln 2 after the switch is closed
E) a long time after the switch is closed
