Finding voltage across an inductor


Assignment:

The voltage v across an inductor L, in LR electrical circuit drops exponentially over time t (s).  The relationship is:

 v = Ee-t/τ

Where the emf, E, and τ are constants.  Use the table of values for t and v and logarithms to plot an appropriate straight line graphs.

t    0.00    0.010    0.020    0.025    0.030    0.040    0.050
v    5.50    2.950    1.600    1.150    0.850    0.450    0.250

Use your graph to estimate the values of E and τ.  How long did it takes to half the initial voltage?

Provide complete and step by step solution for the question and show calculations and use formulas.
