Two conducting circular loops of radii R1R_1 and R2R_2 are placed in the same plane with their centres coinciding. If R1>>R2R_1 >> R_2, the mutual inductance MM between them will be directly proportional to

A

\frac{R_1}{R_2}

B

\frac{R_2}{R_1}

C

\frac{R_1^2}{R_2}

D

\frac{R_2^2}{R_1}

Step-by-Step Solution

Magnetic field at centre B=μ0i2R1B = \frac{\mu_0 i}{2R_1}. Magnetic flux through inner coil ϕ=B×πR22=μ0i2R1×πR22\phi = B \times \pi R_2^2 = \frac{\mu_0 i}{2R_1} \times \pi R_2^2. As per definition, ϕ=Mi\phi = Mi, so M=μ0πR222R1M = \frac{\mu_0 \pi R_2^2}{2 R_1}. Therefore, MR22R1M \propto \frac{R_2^2}{R_1}.
