Two coils of self-inductances \(6 \mathrm{mH}\) and \(8 \mathrm{mH}\) are connected in series and are adjusted for highest coefficient of coupling. Equivalent self-inductance \(L\) for the assembly is approximately

  1. A \(50 \mathrm{mH}\)
  2. B \(36 \mathrm{mH}\)
  3. C \(28 \mathrm{mH}\)
  4. D \(18 \mathrm{mH}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(28 \mathrm{mH}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(L_{1}=6 \mathrm{mH}=6 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{H}\) \[ L_{2}=8 \mathrm{mH}=8 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{H} \] If two coills \(L_{1}\) and \(L_{2}\) are connected in series, the equivalent self-inductance \(L\) for assembly \[ L=L_{1}+L_{2}+2 \sqrt{L_{1} L_{2}} \]…
