A circuit designed to fire a laser flash tube consists of the following (see fig below): a 12 V battery of internal resistance 10 ohms is connected via a switch S1 to a resistance of 80 ohms in series with a relay coil (an inductive coil) of resistance 10 ohms and inductance 2 H. The relay operates when the current in the circuit reaches 50 mA. The operation of the relay closes a switch S2 in an adjacent circuit so that a capacitor bank of 100 microF is charged up via a resistor of 1 kohms in series with a 2 kV supply. If the laser fires when the capacitor bank is charged up to 1 kV, find the time taken from the closing of S1 to firing of the laser. Neglect the time required for the relay to operate. ENTER your numerical answer in magnitude of seconds.

Question
A circuit designed to fire a laser flash tube consists of the following (see fig below): a 12 V battery of internal resistance 10 ohms is connected via a switch 51 to a resistance of 80 ohms in series with a relay coil (an inductive coil) of resistance 10 ohms and inductance 2 H. The relay operates when the current in the circuit reaches 50 mA. The operation of the relay closes a switch S2 in an adjacent circuit so that a capacitor bank of 100 microF is charged up via a resistor of 1 kohms in series with a 2 kV supply. If the laser fires when the capacitor bank is charged up to 1 kV, find the time taken from the closing of S1 to firing of the laser. Neglect the time required for the relay to operate. ENTER your numerical answer in magnitude of seconds.
