The discharging time constant of a circuit consisting of an inductor is the time taken for the voltage in the inductor to become __________ % of the initial voltage.

The discharging time constant of a circuit consisting of an inductor is the time taken for the voltage in the inductor to become __________ % of the initial voltage. Correct Answer 37

We know that: V=V0(e-tR/L). When t=L/R, we have: V=V0(e-1) = 0.37*Vsub>0. Hence the time constant is the time taken for the voltage in an inductive circuit to become 0.37 times its initial voltage.
