(b) A Rogowski coil is required to measure impulse current of 8 kA having rate of change of current of 1010 A/sec. The voltmeter is connected across the integrating circuit which reads 8 volts for full scale deflection. The input to the integrating circuit is from the Rogowski Coil. Determine the mutual inductance of coil, R and C of the integrating circuit.
