Options:
  • A LE 2 2 R 2 2
  • B LE 2 2 R 1 2
  • C LE 2 2 R 1 R 2
  • D LE 2 R 1 + R 2 2 2 R 1 2 R 2 2

The correct answer is: LE 2 2 R 2 2
When the key is at position (B) for a long time; the energy stored in the inductor is :

U B = 1 2 Li 0 2 = 1 2 · L · E R 2 2 = LE 2 2 R 2 2

          

This whole energy will be dissipated in the form of heat when the inductor is connected to R1 and no source is connected.
