The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the energy stored in the inductor of an oscillating LC circuit given the total energy \( U \) and the maximum charge on the capacitor \( \frac{Q}{2} \). ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understand the Total Energy in the LC Circuit**: The total energy \( U \) in an LC circuit is given by the formula: \[ U = \frac{1}{2} \frac{Q^2}{C} \] where \( Q \) is the maximum charge on the capacitor and \( C \) is the capacitance. 2. **Calculate the Energy Stored in the Capacitor**: The energy stored in the capacitor \( U_C \) when the charge is \( \frac{Q}{2} \) is given by: \[ U_C = \frac{1}{2} \frac{(Q/2)^2}{C} \] Simplifying this, we get: \[ U_C = \frac{1}{2} \frac{Q^2/4}{C} = \frac{1}{8} \frac{Q^2}{C} \] 3. **Relate the Energy Stored in the Capacitor to Total Energy**: We know from step 1 that: \[ U = \frac{1}{2} \frac{Q^2}{C} \] Therefore, we can express \( U_C \) in terms of \( U \): \[ U_C = \frac{1}{8} \frac{Q^2}{C} = \frac{1}{4} U \] 4. **Calculate the Energy Stored in the Inductor**: The energy stored in the inductor \( U_L \) can be found by subtracting the energy stored in the capacitor from the total energy: \[ U_L = U - U_C \] Substituting \( U_C = \frac{1}{4} U \) into the equation: \[ U_L = U - \frac{1}{4} U = \frac{3}{4} U \] 5. **Final Result**: Thus, the energy stored in the inductor is: \[ U_L = \frac{3}{4} U \] ### Conclusion: The energy stored in the inductor is \( \frac{3}{4} U \).
