2. Consider the magnetic circuit in the fig with the dimensions of the circuit in Q.1.
Assuming infinite core permeability, calculate (a) the number of turns required to achieve
an inductance of 12 mH and (b) the inductor current which will result in a core flux
density of 1.0 T.
3. Figure shows an iron core whose relative permeability is 2000. The dimensions of the
core are shown in the figure. The width of the core is 7 cm. The lengths of the air gaps
are 0.05 cm and 0.07 cm, respectively. The cross section in the air gaps is 5% bigger than
that of the iron core. The coil has 300 turns and its current is 1.0 A. Determine the
magnetic flux in each column of the iron core and the magnetic induction in the air gaps.
4. Find the currents I1 and I2 and the output voltage Vo in the network shown in Fig.
5. The network shown in Fig. operates at 60 Hz. Compute the energy stored in the mutually
coupled inductors at time t = 10 ms.
