The Correct Option isD
Solution and Explanation
Here, R = 20$\Omega$, L = 20 H and E = 120 V
$\therefore$$I_0 = \frac{E}{R} = \frac{120}{20}$ = 6A
Energy stored = $\frac{1}{2} LI_0\, ^2 = \frac{1}{2} \times 20 \times 36$ = 360 J
Electromagnetic Induction is a current produced by the voltage production due to a changing magnetic field. This happens in one of the two conditions:-
When we place the conductor in a changing magnetic field.
When the conductor constantly moves in a stationary field.
