Detailed Solution
Magnetic field at the centre of a circular coil isB=μ04π × 2πirwhere i is current flowing in the coil and r is radius of coil.At the centre of coil 1,B1=μ04π × 2πi1r1 …(i)At the centre of coil 2,B2=μ04π × 2πi2r2 …(ii)But B1 = B2∴ μ04π 2πi1r1= μ04π 2πi2r2 or i1r1 =i2r2As r1 = 2r2∴ i12r2 =i2r2 Or i1 = 2i2 …(iii)Now, ratio of potential differencesV2V1= i2 × r2i1 × r1 =i2 × r22i2 × 2r2 =14∴ V1V2= 41
