A small square loop of wire of side l is placed inside a large square loop of wire of side LL=l2. The loops are coplanar and their centers coincide. The value of the mutual inductance of the system is x×10-7 H, where x=______.

Solution

Flux linkage for inner loop

ϕ=Bcenter×l2

=4×μ0i4πL2sin45°+sin45°l2

ϕ=22μ0iπLl2

Therefore, mutual inductance will be

M=ϕi=22μ0l2πL=22μ0π

=224ππ×10-7

=82×10-7

=128×10-7 H

Hence, x=128.
