Question 1148015: A schematic of a simple electrical circuit consisting of a resistor and an inductor is shown in the figure. The current I at time t is given by the formula
I = 25e^(−Rt/L), where R is the resistance and L is the inductance. Solve this equation for t.

I = 25e^(−Rt/L), where R is the resistance and L is the inductance. Solve this equation for t.
------------
I/25 = e^(−Rt/L)

================
Note: I/25 must be <1 for t to be positive.
