LR Circuits: a Series Circuit Consists of a 0

question 1

Essay

LR circuits: A series circuit consists of a 0.55-H inductor with internal resistance of 8.0 Ω connected in series with a 4.0-Ω resistor, an open switch, and an ideal 12-V battery.
(a) When the switch is closed, what is the initial current through the 4.0-Ω resistor?
(b) What is the current through the 4.0-Ω resistor a very long time after the switch is closed?

A description of how individuals are distributed across the range of possible outcomes in a given population.

Trimmed Mean

A method of averaging that involves removing a certain percentage of the largest and smallest values before calculating the mean.

Bootstrap Distribution

A statistical technique for estimating the sampling distribution of an estimator by resampling with replacement from the original dataset.
