Question diagram
A

Mutual inductance

B

Self inductance

C

Magnetic reluctance

D

Capacitance

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The magnetic interaction affecting S1 when a current is set up in S2 is described by mutual inductance, as it involves the magnetic flux linkage between two different coils.
