The current in an RL circuit drops from 1.0 A to 10 mA in the first second following removal of the battery from the circuit. If L is 10 H, find the resistance R in the circuit.
The current in a single-loop circuit with one resistance R is 5.0A. When an additional resistance of 2.0 Ω is inserted in series with R, the current drops to 4.0 A. What is R?
Time t < 0, the circuit is in DC Steady State.  The switch is opened instantly at time t=0.   When t<0, I₂ = 7 A, and I₃ = 9 A. R₁ = 5 Ω, R₂ = 4 Ω, and R₃ = 4 Ω.  The solution for I₂ is I2 = I 0 e^ − R t / L.  With several resistors in the circuit, the question is, what resistance do we use for R?  Answer this question (in Ohms).
