Concept:Mutual induction gives the induced e.m.f. in the secondary coil when the current in the primary coil changes with time.
Explanation:The induced e.m.f. is given by the formula:
ε=MΔtΔI​Here,
M is the mutual inductance,
ΔI is the change in primary current, and
Δt is the time interval.
Given values:
M=2 H,ε=2 kV=2000 VThe current in the primary changes from
6Â A to
3Â A, so:
ΔI=6−3=3 ASubstituting into the formula using magnitude only:
2000=2×Δt3​Rearrange to solve for
Δt:
Δt=20002×3​=20006​Δt=0.003 sIn scientific notation:
Δt=3×10−3 sAnswer:The time required for the change in current is
3×10−3 s.
Therefore, the correct option is A.
