Question
Two coils, 1 and 2, are separated in space, and have a fixed distance between them. When coil 2 has no current and the current in coil 1 increases at the rate of 24.0 A/s, the emf in coil 2 is 30.0 mV. What is their mutual inductance, M

Answer:
M = 1.25×10⁻³ H.
Explanation:
Mutual Inductance: This is the inductance that is setup between two coils with their flux having a linkage. The S.I unit of mutual inductance is Henry (H)
Using,
E₂ = Mdi₁/dt…………….. Equation 1
Where E₂ = emf in the second coil, M = Mutual inductance, di₁/dt = rate of current increase in coil 1.
Given: E₂ = 30 mV = (30/1000) V = 0.03 V, di₁/dt = 24 A/s.
Substitute into equation 1
0.03 = 24(M)
M = 0.03/24
M = 1.25×10⁻³ H.
Hence the mutual inductance, M = 1.25×10⁻³ H.
