Mutual inductance describes the process by which a changing current in one coil, creates a changing magnetic flux which, when it links with a second coil, induces a changing voltage into that coil.

What device employs mutual induction?

Mutual inductance OR induction refers to two independent coils which are electrically isolated but magnetically coupled through a path of low reluctance .This will cause most of the energy produced in the primary side to transfer to the secondary with minimal losses.That is why transformers which functioning on the principle of mutual induction has efficiency nearly 99%.


Is the mutual inductance of a transformer is constant under all operating conditions?

The mutual inductance is defined as the voltage induced in one winding when the current in the other winding changes by one amp per second. In an AC system it is the open-circuit induced voltage in the secondary divided by 2 x pi x frequency times the current in the primary. The mutual inductance is determined by the size and shape of the transformer. However if the transformer is operated at more than the rated flux-density of the magnetic core material, the mutual inductance falls (for normal laminated iron cores the maximum flux density is 1 Weber per square metre).


What are the Example each for self induced and mutually induced emf?

if an emf is induced in a coil due to the current flowing through itself is called SELF INDUCTANCE. on the other hand if an emf is induced on another coil due to the current flowing through the previous coil then it is called MUTUAL INDUCTANCE. suppose there are two coils A and B a current is flowing through A. now if the flux produced due to this current induce an emf on the same coil A, then it is SELF INDUCTANCE, and if it produce emf on B, then it is MUTUAL INDUCTANCE due to coil A.

What extremely useful device is based on the principle of mutual inductance?

Transformers are extremely useful devices based on the principle of mutual inductance, which is the process where a changing current in one coil induces a voltage in another coil. Transformers are widely used in electrical power distribution and transmission systems to change voltage levels efficiently.
