Time constant of an inductive circuit_________?
Correct answer: A. increases with increase of inductance and decrease of resistance
- A. increases with increase of inductance and decrease of resistance
- B. increases with the increase of inductance and the increase of resistance
- C. increases with the decrease of inductance and decrease of resistance
- D. increases with decrease of inductance and increase of resistance
Explanation
The inductive time constant is τ = L/R. Therefore, it increases with larger inductance and smaller resistance.
