Answer:
The current is changing at the rate of 0.20 A/s
Explanation:
Given;
inductance of the inductor, L = 5.0-H
current in the inductor, I = 3.0 A
Energy stored in the inductor at the given instant, E = 3.0 J/s
The energy stored in inductor is given as;
E = ¹/₂LI²
E = ¹/₂(5)(3)²
E = 22.5 J/s
This energy is increased by 3.0 J/s
E = 22.5 J/s + 3.0 J/s = 25.5 J/s
Determine the new current at this given energy;
25.5 = ¹/₂LI²
25.5 = ¹/₂(5)(I²)
25.5 = 2.5I²
I² = 25.5 / 2.5
I² = 10.2
I = √10.2
I = 3.194 A/s
The rate at which the current is changing is the difference between the final current and the initial current in the inductor.
= 3.194 A/s - 3.0 A/s
= 0.194 A/s
≅0.20 A/s
Therefore, the current is changing at the rate of 0.20 A/s.
The rate at which the current is changing is;
di/dt = 0.2 A/s
We are given;
Inductance; L = 5 H
Current; I = 3 A
Rate of Increase of energy; dE/dt = 3 J/s
Now, the formula for energy stored in inductor is given as;
E = ¹/₂LI²
Since we are looking for rate at which current is changing, then we differentiate both sides of the energy equation to get;
dE/dt = LI (di/dt)
Plugging in the relevant values gives;
3 = (5 × 3)(di/dt)
di/dt = 3/(5 × 3)
di/dt = 0.2 A/s
