Mutual Inductance

The mutual inductance of a pair of coils, each of 'NN' turns, is 'MM' henry. If a current of 'II' ampere in one of the coils is brought to zero in 'tt' second, the e. m. f. induced per turn in the other coil in volt is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. MM is defined by total flux linkage: Nϕ2=MIN\phi_2 = MI, so total emf in the other coil e=MIte = M\dfrac{I}{t}
  2. Emf per turn =eN=MINt= \dfrac{e}{N} = \dfrac{MI}{Nt}
  3. So the working gives (d) MINt\dfrac{MI}{Nt}; the key gives (a) MIt\dfrac{MI}{t}, which is the total emf of the coil.
