-
v2 = 3V - 5v2 vL
- -
Look at the information provided. Examining the circuit diagram, we notice that the desired
voltage VL is the same as the voltage across the dependent source. Thus,
VL = 5 V2
Examining the circuit diagram, we can see that V2 is equal 3 V.
Therefore,
VL = 5 x 3 = 15 V.

Since α > ω0, the circuit is overdamped and so we expect a capacitor voltage of the form
we need to obtain the two initial conditions A1 and A2. To do this, we will analyze the circuit at
t = 0− to find iL (0−) and vC (0−). We will then analyze the circuit at t = 0+ with the assumption that
neither value changes.
The circuit is shown the behavior of the inductor and capacitor at
t(0-). The inductor as short circuit and the capacitor as open circuit
V(t) = 𝐴 𝑒 + 𝐴 𝑒
Vc (t) = 𝐴 𝑒 + 𝐴 𝑒
Using the initial conditions found earlier and since Vc (0) = 60V and substituting in
the general equation then we get
60 = 𝐴 + 𝐴 ( 1)
We need another equation to determine A1 and A2
The current iC can also be obtained by differentiating the capacitor voltage vC(t) and
multiplying by the value of C

b) i(t) ≥0 if ic(0+) = 8A .
