Problem 5.41: Solution

The document provides the solution to calculating the mutual inductance between a circular loop and a linear current carrying conductor positioned near it. It first sets up an integral to calculate the magnetic flux through the loop due to the current. It then evaluates this integral using properties from a table of integrals. The mutual inductance is found to be equal to the permeability of free space multiplied by the difference between the distance d between the loop and conductor, and the square root of d^2 - a^2, where a is the radius of the circular loop.

a circular loop of radius a at distance d (Problem 5.41).
Solution: To calculate the magnetic ux through the loop due to the current in the
conductor, we consider a thin strip of thickness dy at location y, as shown. The
magnetic eld is the same at all points across the strip because they are all equidistant
(at r = d +y) from the linear conductor. The magnetic ux through the strip is
