Question : 20
Total: 30
Define the term 'mutual inductance' between the two coils.
Obtain the expression for mutual inductance of a pair of long coaxial solenoids each of length l and radii r1 and r2(r2r1). Total number of turns in the two solenoids are (N1. and N2) respectively.
Solution:  
Mutual inductance of two coils is equal to the e.m.f. induced in one coil when rate of change of current through the other coil is unity.


Mutual inductance of two co-axial solenoids : Consider two long co-axial solenoid each of length 1 with number of turns N1 and N2 wound one over the other. Number of turns per unit length in solenoid, n=
N1
l
. If I1 is the current flowing in primary solenoid, the magnetic field produced within this solenoi
B1=
µ0N1I1
l

The flux linked with each turn of inner solenoid coil is
ϕ2=N2ϕ

A2

If n1 is number of turns per unit length of outer solenoid and r2 is radius of inner solenoid, then
M=µ0n1N2πr22
