JEE Main 2026 · 6 Apr · Shift 1, Physics question 43

An inductor of inductance 10 mH having resistance of 100 Ω is connected to battery of E.M.F. 1.0 V through a switch as shown in the figure below. After switch is closed, the ratio of instantaneous voltages across the inductor when the current passing through it is 2 mA and 4 mA is ________.

A single loop: an inductor coil and a cell along the top, a switch (open) along the bottom.
Choose one option
Answer and worked solution

Official answer: A

Inductor voltage. VL=E−IRV_L=E-IR.

  • At 2 mA: 1−0.2=0.81-0.2=0.8 V.
  • At 4 mA: 1−0.4=0.61-0.4=0.6 V.

Ratio: 43\tfrac43.

(A)
