Mutual inductance between straight line cable & square shape Frame

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating the mutual inductance between a straight line cable and a square-shaped frame. Participants clarify that mutual inductance can be analyzed even with a straight conductor by considering it as part of an infinitely long closed loop. The key takeaway is to apply the definition of mutual inductance, which is essential for understanding the interaction between the cable and the frame. The advice provided successfully guided the participants towards a solution.

Homework Equations



I am not sure which equation will be used here because as far as my knowledge goes , mutual inductance should be concerned with turns in coils but in this case it is a straight line

The Attempt at a Solution



I would love to but I don't have a clue

You can think of the straight cable as infinitely long and part of a single closed loop where the rest of the loop is out at infinity.

Try applying the definition of mutual inductance to this situation.
 
Thanks a lot ... at the end your advice worked out fine .. :)
