MCQ
Average energy stored in a pure inductance $L$ when a current $i$ flows through it, is
  • A
    $L{i^2}$
  • B
    $2L{i^2}$
  • C
    $\frac{{L{i^2}}}{4}$
  • $\frac{{L{i^2}}}{2}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$\frac{{L{i^2}}}{2}$
d
(d) As we know $e = - \frac{{d\phi }}{{dt}} = - L\frac{{di}}{{dt}}$

Work done against back $e.m.f$. $e$ in time dt and current i is

$dW = - eidt = L\frac{{di}}{{dt}}idt = Li\;di$ $ \Rightarrow \;W = L\int_0^i {i\;di} = \frac{1}{2}L{i^2}$
