Answer

The magnetic flux through the inductor reaches a maximum at $\frac{T}{4}$

Work Step by Step

The magnetic flux is proportional to the current through the inductor. At $t=0$, the capacitor is charged, so $U_E$ is a maximum and the current $i = 0$ According to the diagram on page 904, the current $i$ then starts to increase until it reaches a maximum at $\frac{T}{4}$ The magnetic flux through the inductor reaches a maximum at $\frac{T}{4}$
