(a) Since the inductor current can’t change instantaneously, we simply need to find iL while
the switch is closed. The inductor is shorting out both of the resistors, so iL(0+) = 2 A.
(b) The instant after the switch is thrown, we know that 2 A flows through the inductor. By
KCL, the simple circuit must have 2 A flowing through the 20-Ω resistor as well. Thus,
v = 4(20) = 80 V.
7. (a) Prior to the switch being thrown, the 12-Ω resistor is isolated and we have a simple
two-resistor current divider (the inductor is acting like a short circuit in the DC circuit,
since it has been connected in this fashion long enough for any transients to have
decayed). Thus, the current iL through the inductor is simply 5(8)/ (8 + 2) = 4 A.
The voltage v must be 0 V.
(b) The instant just after the switch is thrown, the inductor current must remain the same,
so iL = 4 A. KCL requires that the same current must now be flowing through the 12-Ω
resistor, so v = 12(-4) = -48 V.

12. Reading from the graph current is at 0.37 at 2 ms
∴ τ = 2 ms
I 0 = 10 A
13. w = ½ Li2, so an initial energy of 15 mJ in a 10-mH inductor corresponds to an initial

inductor current of 1.732 A. For R = 1 kΩ, τ = L/R = 10 μs, so iL(t) = 1.732 e–0.1t A.
For R = 10 kΩ, τ = 1 μs so iL(t) = 1.732 e-t. For R = 100 kΩ, τ = 100 ns or 0.1 μs so
iL(t) = 1.732 e-10t A. For each current expression above, it is assumed that time is
expressed in microseconds.
To create a sketch, we first realise that the maximum current for any of the three cases
will be 1.732 A, and after one time constant (10, 1, or 0.1 μs), the current will drop to
36.79% of this value (637.2 mA); after approximately 5 time constants, the current will
be close to zero.

As can be seen by
comparing the two plots,
which probably should
have the same x-axis scale
labels for easier
comparison, the PSpice
simulation results obtained
using a parametric sweep
do in fact agree with our
hand calculations.

16. For t < 0, we have a current divider with iL(0-) = ix(0-) = 0.5 [ 10 (1/ (1 + 1.5)] mA
= 2 mA. For t > 0, the resistor through which ix flows is shorted, so that ix(t > 0) = 0.
The remaining 1-kΩ resistor and 1-mH inductor network exhibits a decaying current such
that iL(t) = 2e-t/τ mA where τ = L/R = 1 μS.

18. If i(0) = 10 A, v(0) = 10 V. v(t ) = v(0)e −t / RC = 10e− t / 2 V
(a) At t = 1 s, v(1) = 10e −1/ 2 = 6.065 V
(b) At t = 2 s, v(2) = 10e −1 = 3.679 V
(c) At t = 5 s, v(5) = 10e −2.5 = 821 mV
(d) At t = 10 s, v(10) = 10e−5 = 67.4 mV
19. Referring to Fig. 8.62, we note that τ = RC = 4 s. Thus,
v(t ) = v(0)e −t / RC = 5e−0.25t V .
(a) v(1 ms) = 5e −0.25( 0.001) = 4.999 V
(b) v(2 ms) = 5e −0.25( 0.002 ) = 4.998 V

Therefore i(2 ms) = 4.998 / 1000 = 4.998 mA
(c) v(4 ms) = 5e −0.25( 0.004 ) = 4.995 V

We see from the PSpice

simulation that our

information used to
calculate R = 7.385 Ω.
21. The film acts as an intensity integrator. Assuming that we may model the intensity as a
simple decaying exponential,
φ(t) = φo e-t/ τ
where the time constant τ = RTHC represents the effect of the Thévenin equivalent
resistance of the equipment as it drains the energy stored in the two capacitors, then the
intensity of the image on the film Φ is actually proportional to the integrated exposure:
Φ = K∫
exposure time
φo e − t / τ dt
0
where K is some constant. Solving the integral, we find that
[
Φ = - K φoτ e − (exp osure time)/ τ - 1 ]
The maximum value of this intensity function is –Kφoτ.
With 150 ms yielding an image intensity of approximately 14% of the maximum
observed and the knowledge that at 2 s no further increase is seen leads us to estimate
that 1 – e–150×10 / τ = 0.14, assuming that we are observing single-exponential decay
–3
behavior and that the response speed of the film is not affecting the measurement. Thus,
we may extract an estimate of the circuit time constant as τ = 994.5 ms.
This estimate is consistent with the additional observation that at t = 2 s, the image
appears to be saturated.
With two 50-mF capacitors connected in parallel for a total capacitance of 100 mF, we
may estimate the Thévenin equivalent resistance from τ = RC as Rth = τ / C
= 9.945 Ω.

Then,
0 = (V1 – 100)/ 2 + (V1 – VC)/ 3 + V1/ 5 [1]

0 = VC/ 10 + (VC – V1)/ 3 + (VC – 100) [2]
Solving, we find that VC = vC(0-) = 99.76 V.

(b) The total inductance is 30 || 10 = 7.5 mH. The Thévenin equivalent resistance is
12 || 11 = 5.739 kΩ. Thus, the circuit time constant is L/R = 1.307 μs. The final value of
the total current flowing into the parallel inductor combination is 50/12 mA = 4.167 mA.
This will be divided between the two inductors, so that i(∞) = (4.167)(30)/ (30 + 10) =
3.125 mA.

We may therefore write i(t) = 3.125[1 – e-10 ] A. Solving at t = 3 μs,
we find 2.810 A.

(a) For t < 0, there are no active sources, and so vC = 0.
For 0 < t < 1, only the 40-V source is active. Rth = 5k || 20 k = 4 kΩ and hence
τ = Rth C = 0.4 s. The “final” value (assuming no other source is ever added) is found
by voltage division to be vC(∞) = 40(20)/(20 + 5) = 32 V. Thus, we may write
vC(t) = 32 + [0 – 32] e–t/ 0.4 V = 32(1 – e-2.5t) V.
For t > 1, we now have two sources operating, although the circuit time constant remains
unchanged. We define a new time axis temporarily: t' = t – 1. Then vC(t' = 0+) =
vC(t = 1) = 29.37 V. This is the voltage across the capacitor when the second source
kicks on. The new final voltage is found to be vC(∞) = 40(20)/ (20 + 5) +
100(5)/ (20 + 5) = 52 V.
Thus, vC(t') = 52 + [29.37 – 52] e-2.5t' = 52 – 22.63 e-2.5(t – 1) V.

For t < 0,

our hand calculations and sketch are

93. For t < 0, the voltage across all three capacitors is simply 9 (4.7)/ 5.7 = 7.421 V. The
circuit time constant is τ = RC = 4700 (0.5455×10-6) = 2.564 ms.
When the circuit was first constructed, we assume no energy was stored in any of the
capacitors, and hence the voltage across each was zero. When the switch was closed, the
capacitors began to charge according to ½ Cv2. The capacitors charge with the same
current flowing through each, so that by KCL we may write
dv1 dv dv
C1 = C2 2 = C3 3
dt dt dt
With no initial energy stored, integration yields the relationship C1v1 = C2v2 = C3v3
throughout the charging (i.e. until the switch is eventually opened). Thus, just prior to
the switch being thrown at what we now call t = 0, the total voltage across the capacitor
string is 7.421 V, and the individual voltages may be found by solving:
v1 + v2 + v3 = 7.421
10-6 v1 – 2×10-6 v2 =0
-6 -6
2×10 v2 – 3×10 v3 = 0
so that v2 = 2.024 V.
With the initial voltage across the 2-uF capacitor now known, we may write
-3
v(t) = 2.024 e-t/ 2.564×10 V
(a) v(t = 5.45 ms) = 241.6 mV.

-3
(b) The voltage across the entire capacitor string can be written as 7.421 e-t/ 2.564×10 V.
Thus, the voltage across the 4.7-kΩ resistor at t = 1.7 ms = 3.824 V and the dissipated
power is therefore 3.111 mW.
(c) Energy stored at t = 0 is ½ Cv2 = 0.5(0.5455×10-6)(7.421)2 = 15.02 μJ.
94. voltage follower ∴ vo (t ) = v2 (t )

u (t )
−10,000 t
= 1.25e u (t )V
95. This is a voltage follower ∴ vo (t ) = v2 (t ) , where v2(t) is defined at the non-inverting input.
The time constant of the RC input circuit is 0.008(1000+250) = 10 s.
Considering initial conditions: vC(0-) = 0 ∴ vC(0+) = 0.

Applying KVL at t = 0+,
5 = v250/250 + v2/1000.
Since at t = 0+ v250 = v2, we find that v2(0+) = 1 V.
As t → ∞, v2→ 0, so we may write,
vo(t) = v2(t) = 1.0e-t/10 u(t) V.
PSpice verification:
In plotting both the hand-derived result and the PSpice simulation result, we see that the
ideal op amp approximation holds very well for this particular circuit. Although the 741
contains internal capacitors, it does not introduce any shorter time constants than that of
the input circuit.
96. For t < 0, the current source is an open circuit and so i1 = 40/ 50 = 0.8 A.
The current through the 5-Ω resistor is [40 – 10(0.8)]/ 5 = 7.2 A, so the inductor current
is equal to – 7.2 A
PSpice Simulation
From the PSpice simulation, we see that our t < 0 calculation is indeed correct, and find
that the inductor current at t = 50 ms is 7.82 A.
97. (a) 4 −20,000t

v1 = 0 (virtual gnd) ∴ i = e u (t )A
104
t 4 −20,000t
∴ vc = 107 ∫ e dt = −0.2e −20,000t t
o
o 10 4
∴ vc (t ) = 0.2(1 − e −20,000t ) u (t )
∴ vR (t ) = 103 i (t ) = 0.4e −20,000t u (t )V
∴ vo (t ) = −vc (t ) − vR (t ) = (−0.2 + 0.2e −20,000t − 0.4e −20,000t ) u (t )
3
And we may write vo(t) = -0.2[1 + e-20×10 t]u(t) V.
(b) PSpice verification:
We can see from the simulation result that our ideal op amp approximation is not
providing a great deal of accuracy in modeling the transient response of an op amp in this
particular circuit; the output was predicted to be negative for t > 0.
98. One possible solution of many: implement a capacitor to retain charge; assuming the
light is left on long enough to fully charge the capacitor, the stored charge will run the
lightbulb after the wall switch is turned off. Taking a 40-W light bulb connected to 115
V, we estimate the resistance of the light bulb (which changes with its temperature) as
330.6 Ω. We define “on” for the light bulb somewhat arbitrarily as 50% intensity, taking
intensity as proportional to the dissipated power. Thus, we need at least 20 W (246 mA
or 81.33 V) to the light bulb for 5 seconds after the light switch is turned off.
The circuit above contains a 1-MΩ resistor in parallel with the capacitor to allow current
to flow through the light bulb when the light switch is on. In order to determine the
required capacitor size, we first recognise that it will see a Thevenin equivalent resistance
of 1 MΩ || 330.6 Ω = 330.5 Ω. We want vC(t = 5s) = 81.33 = 115e-5/τ, so we need a
circuit time constant of t = 14.43 s and a capacitor value of τ/ Rth = 43.67 mF.
99. Assume at least 1 μA required otherwise alarm triggers.
Add capacitor C.

100. (a) Note that negative times are not permitted in PSpice. The only way to model this
situation is to shift the time axis by a fixed amount, e.g., t ′ = t + 1 .
(b) Negative times are not permitted in PSpice. The only way to model this situation is to
shift the time axis by a fixed amount, e.g., t ′ = t + 2 .
