उत्तर
Mutual Inductance
The ability of production of induced emf in one coil, due to varying current in the neighbouring coil is called mutual inductance.
Magnetic flux, Φ = MI Where, M is called coefficient of mutual induction
Mutual Inductance of Two Long Solenoids

Consider two long solenoids S1 and S2 of same length l, such that solenoid S2 surrounds solenoid S1 completely.
Φ21 = M21I1
Where, M21 is the coefficient of mutual induction of the two solenoids
Magnetic field produced inside solenoid S1 on passing current through it,
B1 = μ0n1I1
Magnetic flux linked with each turn of solenoid S2 will be equal to B1 times the area of cross-section of solenoid S1.
Magnetic flux linked with each turn of the solenoid S2 = B1A
Therefore, total magnetic flux linked with the solenoid S2,
Φ21 = B1A × n2l = μ0n1I1× A× n2l
Φ21 = μ0n1n2lAI1
∴ M21 = μ0n1n2Al
Similarly, the mutual inductance between the two solenoids, when current is passed through solenoid S2 and induced emf is produced in solenoid S1, is given by
M12 = μ0n1n2Al
∴M12 = M21 = M (say)
Hence, coefficient of mutual induction between the two long solenoids
`M = mu_0n_1n_2Al`
