Detailed Solution

At t = 0, i.e., when the key is just pressed, no current exists inside the inductor. So 10 Ω and 20 Ω resistors are in series and a net resistance of (10 + 20) = 30 Ω exists across the circuit.
 Hence, I1=230=115A
As t, the current in the inductor grows to attain a maximum value, i.e., the entire current passes through the inductor and shortcircuits 10 Ω resistor.
 Hence, I2=220=110A
