Explanation

**Mutual inductance calculation** M = e₂/(dI₁/dt), for 200 turns length 0.5 m nearby coil e=0.5 V dI=2 A dt=0.2 s dI/dt=10 A/s, M=0.5/10=0.05 H, depends on geometry, orientation, number of turns, area, separation, coupling coefficient k = M/√(L₁ L₂) ≤1. For a stationary rod ( v = 0 ), the emf is induced by the electric field generated by the time-varying magnetic field, not the magnetic force ( q v × B ), which requires motion. Using Φ = B A cosθ, e = -N dΦ/dt = -N A dB/dt = B l v = N B A ω sinωt, L = μ₀ N²A/l, M
