Question

Two coaxial solenoids are made by winding thin insulated wire over a pipe of cross-sectional area \( A = 10 \, \text{cm}^2 \) and length 20 cm. If one of the solenoids has 300 turns and the other 400 turns, their mutual inductance is

• A. \( 2.4 \pi \times 10^{-5} \, \text{H} \)
• B. \( 2.4 \times 10^{-7} \, \text{H} \)
• C. \( 4.8 \pi \times 10^{-4} \, \text{H} \)
• D. \( 4.8 \pi \times 10^{-5} \, \text{H} \)

Hint:

The mutual inductance between two solenoids depends on their number of turns, cross-sectional area, and the length of the solenoids.
