SELF INDUCTANCE OF A GIVEN COIL BY ANDERSONS BRIDGE

AIM;To determine the self inductance of a given coil by Andersons bridge.

Apparatus:Battery,Resistance box,galvanometer,capacitor,inductance coil.

Formula: L=C[QR+r(R+S)]

Where L->self inductance of the coil

c->capacitance

R->resistance

r->varying resistance

procedure: electrical connections are made as shown in the fig.In the first part of
the experiment DC source and the galvanometer are used in the circuit.The ohms

P,Q,R are the resistance in the post office box for the ohms.The given self
inductance is connected in the series with a resistance wire,Dc balance is
obtained with r=0 of adjusting the value of P,Q,R and in necessary by varying the
length of resistance wire the Dc source is replaced by an audio oscillator and the
galvanometer by the ear phone keeping the resistance P,Q,R, and some r is
adjusted till the minimum sound is heared in the ear phone.Then self inductance
is calculated by using the keeping the resistance P,Q,R and S.some r is adjusted till
the minimum sound is heard in the ear phone.Then self inductance is calculated
by using the equation.

L=C[QR+r(R+S)] Henry

Tabular Column: For c=

Trial no P in Q in R in r in S=QR/P L=C[QR+r(R+S)]

10-3 Henry
Tabular Column 2: For c=

Trial no P in Q in R in r in S=QR/P L=C[QR+r(R+S)]

10-3 Henry

Result:
