Theory
Self-Induction
Any change in current causes an expansion or collapsing of the magnetic field around a
conductor, which in turn induces an e.m.f. in the conductor. This phenomenon is self-induction
induction. The magnitude of the self-induced e.m.f. is proportional to the amplitude and
frequency of the current. By Lenz's Law, we can also find the relationship between the induced
e.m.f. and the applied voltage that causes the current flow is such that the two voltages are
always 180 degrees out of phase.
Since the magnitude of the magnetic flux is proportional to the magnitude of current in the coil.
The self- induced e.m.f. of coil can be expressed by the Equation 5.1. Of course, the magnetic
field of a coil can be made stronger, more flux lines too, by keeping a soft iron core inside the

coil.

Where L is the inductance of the coil due to which it opposes the change of current flowing
through it. Inductance is attained by a coil due to the self-induced e.m.f produced in the coil itself
by changing the current flowing through it. If the current in the coil is increasing, the self-
induced e.m.f produced in the coil will oppose the rise of current, which means the direction of
the induced e.m.f is opposite to the applied voltage. If the current in the coil is decreasing, the
e.m.f induced in the coil is in such a direction as to oppose the fall of current; this means that the
direction of the self-induced e.m.f is same as that of the applied voltage. This property of the
coil only opposes the changing current (alternating current) and does not affect the steady
current that is (direct current) when flows through it. The unit of inductance is Henry (H).
The circuit of Fig. 5.1 can be used to demonstrate the phenomenon of self-induction. When the
switch is closed, the coil then current changes in the coil and build a magnetic field (flux). If the
switch is opened, the magnetic flux will collapse rapidly.

Mutual Induction
When the current in a coil is changing that a voltage will be induced in another coil placed near
to it. This effect is called mutual-induction. Consider the Figure 5.2, current flowing through the
coil of inductance L1 builds up a magnetic field (flux) around itself. A part of this flux which
links only coils 1. The other part links both the 1 and 2 coils and therefore is a component of
mutual flux. This mutual flux sets up an induced e.m.f. in coil L2 given by Equation 5.2.

Where, em is the voltage induced in the secondary coil and I1 is the current flowing in the primary
coil. M is the mutual inductance, defined as the property of the coils that enables it to oppose
the changes in the current in another coil and measured in Henry (H).We can use this formula
when we know the value of the mutually induced e.m.f as well as the change of current in coil
two, or the neighboring coil.
Now, if em = 1 and dI1 / dt = 1, then on substituting the value in the given equations, we see that
the value of M, that is mutual inductance is 1 Henry. Thus two coils have a mutual inductance
of 1 henry when
e.m.f of 1 volt is induced in coil 1 and when the current flowing through coil 2 is changing at the
rate of one ampere per second.
