Question:

In a fluorescent lamp choke (a small transformer) 100 V of reverse voltage is produced when the choke current changes uniformly from 0.25 A to 0 in a duration of 0.025 ms. The self-inductance of the choke (in mH) is estimated to be ________.

Show Hint

Use \(|\varepsilon|=L\left|\frac{\Delta I}{\Delta t}\right|\).

Correct Answer: 10

Solution and Explanation

\(|\varepsilon|=L\frac{|\Delta I|}{\Delta t}\Rightarrow L=\frac{\varepsilon\,\Delta t}{\Delta I}\).
\(L=\frac{100\times0.025\times10^{-3}}{0.25}=\frac{2.5\times10^{-3}}{0.25}=10^{-2}\) H \(=10\) mH.
