Question

When two coils are placed close to each other, and a changing current flowing through one coil produces an EMF in the other coil, this phenomenon is called:
Options
A Self Induction
B Mutual Induction
Correct Answer
C Electromagnetic Resonance
D Magnetic Hysteresis
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.
