Calculate the value of equivalent inductance for series subtracting polarity of two coils whose self inductances are 14 H, 5 H, and mutual inductance value is 1 H.(a) 15 H(b) 17 H(c) 12 H(d) 10 HThis question was posed to me in a job interview.The doubt is from Regenerative Braking of DC Shunt Motors in chapter Braking of DC Motors & Induction Motors of Electric Drives

Answer»

The correct option is (b) 17 H

Easy explanation: The equivalent inductance for series subtracting of two coils is Leq=L1+L2-2M=14+5-2=17 H. The value of equivalent inductance decreases due to NEGATIVELY mutually induced e.m.f in case of the MAGNETICALLY COUPLED circuit.
