Two coils of self inductance L1 and L2 are connected in series combination having mutual inductance of the coils as M. The equivalent self inductance of the combination will be :

JEE Main 2022 (Online) 26th June Evening Shift Physics - Electromagnetic Induction Question 60 English

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 1L1+1L2+1M{1 \over {{L_1}}} + {1 \over {{L_2}}} + {1 \over M}
  • B L1+L2+M{L_1} + {L_2} + M
  • C L1+L2+2M{L_1} + {L_2} + 2M
  • D L1+L2−2M{L_1} + {L_2} - 2M

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Self inductances are in series but their mutual inductances are linked oppositely so equivalent self inductance

L = L1 + L2 −- M −- M = L1 + L2 −- 2M
