A rectangular loop of sides ‘ a ‘ and ‘ b ‘ is placed in xy plane. A very long wire is also placed in xy plane such that side of length ‘ a ‘ of the loop is parallel to the wire. The distance between the wire and the nearest edge of the loop is ‘ d ‘. The mutual inductance of this system is proportional to :
a
Current in wire
The flux in a rectangular loop due to current i in wire is
Mutual inductance is
Mutual inductance is proportional to ‘a’.
