Question

Two coils are wound around the same cylindrical form. When the current in the first coil is decreasing at a rate of -0.250 A/s , the induced emf in the second coil has a magnitude of 1.65×103 V .

Part A

What is the mutual inductance of the pair of coils?

Part B

If the second coil has 23 turns, what is the flux through each turn when the current in the first coil equals 1.25 A ?

Part C

If the current in the second coil increases at a rate of 0.365 A/s , what is the magnitude of the induced emf in the first coil?

Explanation / Answer

Let E be the induced emf, M be the mutual inductance, I be the current in the first coil, N2 be the no. of turns in second coil

A) Then, we have, E = M.dI/dT => M = E/(dI/dT) = (1.65*10^-3)/0.250 = 6.6*10^-3 H

B) Flux through each turn = M.I/N2 = 6.6*10^-3*1.25/23 = 3.59*10^-4Wb

C) E = M.dI/dT => E = 6.6*10^-3*0.365 = 2.409*10^-3V
