1. An iron ring has a circular cross- sectional area of 7 cm 2 and a mean circumference of 80 cm. The ring is uniformly wound with the coil of 600 turns. Relative permeability of iron is 800. A. Find the current required to produce a flux of 0.4mWb in the ring. B. If a saw cut of 2 mm wide is made in the ring, find the flux produced, if the current is same as found in part(A). C. Find the current which would give the same flux as in part (A). 2. Two coils of 12000 turns and of 15000 turns lie in parallel planes so that 45% of flux produced by the first coil links with the second coil. A current of 5A in the first coil produces 0.05 mWb while the same current in the second coil produces 0.075mWb.Calculate a) The mutual inductance b) The coupling coefficients.
