The L-C circuit shown in the figure has an inductance $$L=1mH$$ and a capacitance $$C = 10\mu F.$$

The $$L$$-$$C$$ circuit $$Q.13$$ is used to commutate a thyristor, which is initially carrying a current of $$5A$$ as shown in the figure below. The values and initial conditions of $$L$$ and $$C$$ are the same as in $$Q.13.$$ The switch is closed at $$t = 0.$$ If the forward drop is negligible, the time taken for the device to turn off is
