NEET Physics Self & Mutual Induction MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 12
Consider two long co-axial solenoids of equal length with solenoid S1 inside solenoid S2. When a current I2 is set up through S2, which quantity describes the magnetic interaction affecting S1?

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.
