RL Circuits CLAIMED BY VJ SERVERA

The Main Idea

An RL circuit is one that contains resistors and inductors. The simplest type of these circuits involves one resistor and one inductor, and is called a first order RL circuit. The order of the circuit is equal to the number of inductors involved in the circuit. In this section we will study the following circuit:

A Mathematical Model

First we must remember the relationship between current going through an inductor and the voltage drop across it. The relationship is simply [math]\displaystyle{ {\frac{d\vec{i}}{dt}}_{system} = \vec{v(t)} }[/math]
