LC Circuits: A series circuit contains an 80-?F capacitor, a 0.020-H inductor, and a switch. The resistance of the circuit is negligible. Initially, the switch is open, the capacitor voltage is 50 V, and the current in the inductor is zero. At time t = 0 s, the switch is closed. What is the maximum current in the circuit?
A. 2.2 A
B. 2.4 A
C. 2.8 A
D. 3.0 A
E. 3.2 A
