A toroidal solenoid with mean radius r and cross-sectional area A is wound uniformly with N1 turns. A second toroidal solenoid w

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Mutual inductance, $M=2.28\times 10^{-5}\ H$

Explanation:

(a) A toroidal solenoid with mean radius r and cross-sectional area A is wound uniformly with N₁ turns. A second thyroidal solenoid with N₂ turns is wound uniformly on top of the first, so that the two solenoids have the same cross-sectional area and mean radius.

Mutual inductance is given by :

$M=\dfrac{\mu_oN_1N_2A}{2\pi r}$

(b) It is given that,

$N_1=550$

$N_2=290$

Radius, r = 10.6 cm = 0.106 m

Area of toroid, $A=0.76\ cm^2=7.6\times 10^{-5}\ m^2$

Mutual inductance, $M=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 550\times 290\times 7.6\times 10^{-5}}{2\pi \times 0.106}$

$M=0.0000228\ H$

$M=2.28\times 10^{-5}\ H$

So, the value of mutual inductance of the toroidal solenoid is $2.28\times 10^{-5}\ H$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

A special triangular frame is being made for a piece of artwork. The the base of the triangular frame must be 90 cm. If the area

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Explanation:

base of triangular frame, b = 90 cm

Area, A = 765 cm²

Let the height is h.

Area of a triangular frame = 1/2 x base x height

765 = 0.5 x 90 x h

h = 17 cm

Thus, the height of triangular frame is 17 cm.

Why does self inductance acts as electrical inertia?

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

self-indulgence of coil is the property by virtue of wich is tends to maintain magnatic flux link with it and opposed any any change in the flux inducing current in it
