In the figure below,the switches $S_1$ and $S_2$ are closed simultaneously at $t=0$ and a current starts to flow in the circuit. Both the batteries have the same magnitude of the electromotive force (emf) $V$ and the polarities are as indicated in the figure. Ignore mutual inductance between the inductors. The current $I$ in the middle wire reaches its maximum magnitude $I_{\max}$ at time $t=T$. Which of the following statements is (are) true?
$(A)$ $I_{\max}=\frac{V}{2R}$
$(B)$ $I_{\max}=\frac{V}{4R}$
$(C)$ $T=\frac{L}{R} \ln 2$
$(D)$ $T=\frac{2L}{R} \ln 2$

In the figure,a lamp $P$ is in series with an iron-core inductor $L$. When the switch $S$ is closed,the brightness of the lamp rises relatively slowly to its full brightness compared to the case without the inductor. This is due to:

Consider the $LR$ circuit shown in the figure. If the switch $S$ is closed at $t = 0$, then the amount of charge that passes through the battery between $t = 0$ and $t = \frac{L}{R}$ is
