2. Part of this project concerns an RL circuit. For the circuit shown, assume is?=4A and that the initial current in the inductor is i(0)=0 before the switch is closed at time t=0. Figure 1: RL Circuit a. Apply Kirchhoff's laws to write the differential equation describing the v(t) across the inductor after the switch is closed. Justify each step of your derivation. b. Solve your differential equation to obtain the equation for v(t) across and i(t) through the inductor. c. Recall that the time constant, ?, for this circuit is: ?=
