Q 9. A pair of adjacent coils has a mutual inductance of 1.5 H. If the current in one coil changes from 0 to 20 A in 0.5 s, what is the change of flux linkage with the other coil?


 

Given,

Mutual inductance, 

Current at the initial point, I1 = 0A

Current at the final point, I2 = 20A

Change in current is, null

Time taken for the change, t = 0.5s

Emf induced, e=dϕ/dt                   ...1

Where, dØ is the change in the flux linkage with the coil.

Emf is related to mutual inductance as:

null                 ...2

Equating equations (I) and (2), we get

null

Hence, the change in the flux linkage is 30 Wb.
