The switch in the circuit shown below is a two-way switch;; to prevent sparking, the switch is also a "make-before-break" switch,
meaning that, in moving from a to b, the switch makes contact at b an instant before losing contact at a. When the switch is inposition a, the inductor L is in series with the battery and resistor Ra. When the switch is in position b, the inductor L is in series
with resistor Rb.
Assume that Ra = 10.0 Ω, L = 2.5 H, Rb = 20.0 Ω, and VB = 100 V, and also assume that the switch is first moved to position b.
After a long time, the switch is then moved to position a. Immediately after moving the switch to position a, what will be theabsolute value of the rate of change of current in resistor Ra?

A resistor R, an ideal inductor L, and a capacitor C are connected in series to an AC generator having an EMF given by
(t) = maxsin(ωt).
If the current in this circuit is written as
I(t) = Imaxsin(ωt − φ),
then conservation of power for the circuit, averaged over one cycle, may be written as
rmsIrmscos(φ) = (Irms)2R.
Evaluate the correctness of the following three statements relating to this conservation of power equation.

The switch in the circuit shown below is a two-way switch; to prevent sparking, the switch is also a
"make-before-break" switch, meaning that, in moving from a to b, the switch makes contact at b an

battery and resistor Ra. When the switch is in position b, the inductor L is in series with resistor Rb.
Assume that Ra = 12.0 Ω, L = 6.0 H, Rb = 20.0 Ω, and VB = 100 V, and also assume that the switch
