Find the time constant τ for the first order response of the circuit below at t > 0 s.
L = 6 H
R1 = 8 Ω : R2 = 6 Ω
Give your answer to at least two decimal places, in s.
I am really struggling on where even to begin with this question.
I know that for a simplified circuit t = L/R
And that you are meant to analyse the circuit just before and after the switch is closed or something along those lines, but I can't seem to apply it.
Any help to allow me to understand this type of question better would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
