Two conducting circular loops of radii ' \(\mathrm{R}_1\) ' and ' \(R_2\) ' are placed in the same plane with their centres coinciding. If \(\mathrm{R}_1>\mathrm{R}_2\), the mutual inductance \(\mathrm{M}\) between them will be directly proportional to

  1. A \(\frac{\mathrm{R}_1}{\mathrm{R}_2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{\mathrm{R}_2}{\mathrm{R}_1}\)
  3. C \(\frac{\mathrm{R}_1^2}{\mathrm{R}_2}\)
  4. D \(\frac{\mathrm{R}_2^2}{\mathrm{R}_1}\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\frac{\mathrm{R}_2^2}{\mathrm{R}_1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Mutual inductance of two concentric coplanar circular coils,
\(\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{M}=\frac{\mu_0 \pi \mathrm{N}_1 \mathrm{~N}_2 \mathrm{R}_2^2}{2 \mathrm{R}_1} \\
\therefore \quad & \mathrm{M} \propto \frac{\mathrm{R}_2^2}{\mathrm{R}_1}
\end{aligned}\)
