Concepts and reason

The concept used to solve this problem is LC circuit.

In LC parallel circuit, an inductor and a capacitor are connected in parallel.

At t=0 the switch is connected only to inductor and capacitor. Hence it is a LC circuit.

Use the expression for frequency of LC circuit in terms of capacitance and inductance to find the frequency of oscillation of LC circuit.

Then use the expression for maximum charge in the capacitor in terms of capacitance and voltage to find the expression for maximum charge on the capacitor.

Then find current through the inductor and maximum energy stored in the inductor.
