A resistor R can be assumed in series with the switch, and the energy dissipated on R can be derived (easy). The resulting equation will show that the energy dissipated is R independent. One half of the original energy of the system will be lost on R, regardless of its value. If L is assumed instead of R, we can arrive at the same conclusion except that the 1/2 energy will not be lost, but will be stored in the inductor regardless of its value. -=- Bulent Abali Ohio State Univ., Dept.of Electrical Eng. 2015 Neil Av.
