Solution

Coefficient of mutual induction − consider two coils P and S. Suppose that a current I is flowing through the coil P at any instant i.e.,
Φ ∝ I
Φ = MI… (i)
If ‘e’ is the induced emf produced in the S-coil, then
`e=(dphi)/dt=-d/dt(MI)=-M(dl)/dt`
Mutual Inductance of two concentric coils, one of radius r1 and the other of radius r2 (r1 < r2) placed coaxially with centers coinciding with each other:

Consider two circular coil S1 and S2 of same length l, such that coil S2 surrounds coil S1 completely
Let
n1 − Number of turns per unit length of S1
n2 − Number of turns per unit length of S2
I1 − Current passed through solenoid S1
Φ21 − Flux linked with S2 due to current flowing through S1
Φ21 ∝ I1
Φ21 = M21I1
Where M21 is the coefficient of mutual induction of the two coils
When current is passed through S1, an emf is induced in S2.
Magnetic field produced inside S1 on passing current through it,
B1 = μ0n1I1
Magnetic flux linked with each turn of S2 will be equal to B1 times the area of the cross-section of S1.
Magnetic flux linked with each turn of the S2 = B1A
Therefore, total magnetic flux linked with the S2,
Φ21 = B1A × n2l = μ0n1I1 × A× n2l
Φ21 = μ0n1n2AlI1
∴ M21 = μ0n1n2Al
Similarly, the mutual inductance between the two coils, when current is passed through coil S2 and induced emf is produced in coil S1, is given by
M12 = μ0n1n2Al
∴M12 = M21 = M (say)
Hence, coefficient of mutual induction between the two coil will be
