MathJax formatting. Toned down the bold. Fixed schematic and added values to it.

Aug 29, 2019 at 14:34 comment added make2r Yeah I get it only thru the parallel part which is then actually a series the other resistor plays no role in tau

Aug 29, 2019 at 14:12 comment added Arsenal Still not quite there I fear. The inductor will only keep the current active which is running though itself not the one through the whole circuit.
Aug 29, 2019 at 14:02 comment added Bart "tau=L/Rtotal=0.1/26=0.003" Where did you get a 𝜏 of 3 ms? After the switch opens, the inductor "defluxes" over 10 and 15 ohms in series. Which gives 𝜏=100mH/25 Ω = 4ms. Also, 0.1/26 does not equal 0.003.
Aug 29, 2019 at 13:10 comment added Andy aka Your diagram should indicate which is R1, R2 etc.. Don't expect folk to keep glancing up and down because it drives me mad doing that and you don't want to get me mad.
Aug 29, 2019 at 13:06 comment added make2r so I=UL/Rtotal -> 1.92=UL/25 -> UL=48V Tau=L/Rtotal=0.1/25=0.004 , iL=1.92*e^(-0.006/0.004)=0.42A , uL=48*e^(-0.006/0.004)=10.71V , energy of the inductor at t=6ms WL=(L*i^2)/2=0.008J
Aug 29, 2019 at 12:59 comment added Arsenal Yes that is correct.
Aug 29, 2019 at 12:55 comment added make2r So the current goes thru R1 and R2 only it won go thru R3=20Ω
Aug 29, 2019 at 12:48 comment added Arsenal I think it's useful to think of an inductor as a form of current source instead of voltage, because "it tries" to keep the current steady. And if you think about the current which is going to flow, which of the three resistors is/are in the current path when the switch opens?
