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. When the potential across the capacitor is 30 V, what is the rate of change of the current? A) 1000 A/s B) 1500 A/s C) 2000 A/s D) 2500 A/s E) 3000 A/s
