Answer

$R = 46~\Omega$

Work Step by Step

We can find $R$: $i = i_0~e^{-tR/L}$ $\frac{i}{i_0} =e^{-tR/L}$ $e^{tR/L} = \frac{i_0}{i}$ $\frac{t~R}{L} = ln(\frac{i_0}{i})$ $R = \frac{L}{t}~ln(\frac{i_0}{i})$ $R = (\frac{10~H}{1.0~s})~ln(\frac{1.0~A}{0.010~A})$ $R = (\frac{10~H}{1.0~s})~ln(100)$ $R = 46~\Omega$
