Question
Two coils of self-inductances 2 mH and 8 mH are placed so close together that the effective flux in one coil is completely linked with the other. The mutual inductance between these coils is
-
10 mH
-
6 mH
-
4 mH
-
16 mH
Solution
C.
4 mH
When the total flux associated with one coil links with the other i.e, a case of maximum flux linkage, then
Similarly,
If all the flux of coil 2 links coil 1 and vice-versa then
Since, hence we have
