Math Problem Statement

Find an expression for 𝑖𝑙 in the laplace domain for the circuit below after the switch is opened.

Assume that:

𝐼=0.7 A 𝑅=10.0Ω 𝐿=5.0 mH 𝐶=20 mF

The expression should be in the format of 𝑖𝐿 = A/(s(s^2 + B*s +C)). Please express coefficients A, B, and C as whole numbers.

As the question asks for a Laplace equation, we'll need to do a Laplace transform.

  1. Transform impedances and sources into the Laplace domain using: Zc = 1/sC, Zl = sL, Zr = R, and I = i/s.
  2. Form a current divider using the s-domain impedances: I_l = I_t * 1/Zl / (1/Zl + 1/Zc + 1/Zr)
  3. solve and factorise out some s's and constants to get it in the desired form!
