The equivalent inductance of two inductances is 2.4 henry when connected in parallel and 10 henry when connected in series. The difference between the two inductances is

a
2 henry
b
3 henry
c
4 henry
d
5 henry

detailed solution

Correct option is A

LS=L1+L2=10H    .............(i)LP=L1L2L1+L2=2.4H   ..........(ii)On solving (i) and (ii) L1L2 = 24 …....... (iii) Also L1−L22=L1+L22−4L1L2⇒L1−L22=(10)2−4×24=4⇒L1−L2=2H

Two different coils have self-inductance  L1=8mH, L2=2mH . The current in one coil is increased at a constant rate. The current in the second coil is also increased at the same rate. At a certain instant of time, the power given to the two coils is the same. At that time the current, the induced voltage and the energy stored in the first coil are i1,V1 and W1 respectively. Corresponding values for the second coil at the same instant are i2,V2  and W2 respectively. Then
