Question

Assertion :Two coaxial conducting rings of different radii are placed in space. The mutual inductance of both the rings is maximum if the rings are also coplanar. Reason: For two coaxial conducting rings of different radii, the magnitude of magnetic flux in one ring due to current in the other is maximum when both the rings are coplanar.

A

Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
magnetic flux is given by ϕ=B.A. It will be maximum when the dot product of B and A will maximize for the given values of B and A, i.e. , when the angle between them is zero. And when this dot product maximizes, so does the flux linkage between the two rings and hence also the mutual inductance.
