A Blackbox (BB) which may contain a combination of electrical circuit elements (resistor, capacitor or inductor) is connected with other external circuit elements as shown below in figure (a). After the switch is closed at time \(t=0,\), the current \((I)\) as a function of time \((t)\) is shown in figure (b).

         

From this, we can infer that the Blackbox contains:

1. a resistor and a capacitor in series.
2. a resistor and a capacitor in parallel.
3. a resistor and an inductor in series.
4. a resistor and an inductor in parallel.

An inductor of \(0.1~\text H\) is connected with a \(10~\Omega\) resistance in series with it, as shown in the figure. A DC-source of emf \(20~\text V\) and an AC-source of emf \(20~\text{V}\) (RMS) are separately connected across \(AB.\) The ac-frequency is \(\dfrac{50}{\pi}~\text{Hz}.\)
             
Let the DC-energy stored in the inductor be \(U\) (after a long time) and the average energy stored in the inductor (with the ac-source) be \(U_{av}.\) The ratio \(\dfrac{U_{av}}{U}\) equals:
1. zero

2. \(1\)

3. \(\dfrac12\)

4. \(\dfrac14\)

The current through the inductor in the figure is initially zero. The initial rate of change of the current \(i\) through the inductor (i.e. \(\dfrac{di}{dt}\)) is:
           
 
1. zero 2. \(-\dfrac{I_{0} R}{L}\)
3. \(\dfrac{I_{0} R}{L}\) 4. \(\dfrac{I_{0} R}{2L}\)
