In a transformer,the mutual inductance between the primary and secondary coils is $0.5 \ H$. The resistances of the primary and secondary coils are $20 \ \Omega$ and $5 \ \Omega$ respectively. To induce a current of $0.4 \ A$ in the secondary coil,what is the required rate of change of current in the primary coil in $A/s$?

  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $16$
  • C
    $1.6$
  • D
    $8$
