The two definitions of mutual inductance are
Mutual inductance of a coil is equal to the electromotive force induced in a coil when rate of change of current through the different coil is unity.
Mutual inducatne of a coil is the magnetic flux linked with the secondary coil when the current flowing in the primary coil is .
Its unit is henry(H).
