An inductor coil stores $U$ energy when $I$ current is passed through it and dissipates energy at the rate of $P$. The time constant of the circuit,when this coil is connected across a battery of zero internal resistance,is

  • A
    $\frac{4U}{P}$
  • B
    $\frac{U}{P}$
  • C
    $\frac{2U}{P}$
  • D
    $\frac{2P}{U}$
