For L-R circuit

i=\frac{E}{R}(I-e^{-t/t}) where L = \frac{L}{R}

and rate of magnetic energy stored in inductor =i\times L\times \frac{di}{dt}.......\; \; \; \; (1)

and rate of dissipiation of energy across Resistance =i^{2}R\; \; \; \; \; ......(2)

from question (1)=(2)

So i^{2}R=i\; L\; \frac{di}{dt}

R\times\frac{E}{R}(I-e^{-\frac{Rt}{L}})=\left ( L\times\frac{E}{R}\times\frac{R}{L}e^{-\frac{Rt}{L}} \right )

\Rightarrow 2\; e^{-\frac{Rt}{L}}=1

      \frac{R}{L}t=ln\; 2

t=\frac{L}{R}ln\; 2

t=\frac{20}{10}ln\; 2

t=2\; ln\; 2


Option 1)

ln\; 2

Option 2)

2\; ln\; 2

Option 3)

\frac{1}{2}\; ln\; 2

 

Option 4)

\frac{2}{ ln\; 2}\;
