  "term": "Mutual inductance",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A measure of the extent to which a change in electric current in one circuit induces an electromotive force (voltage) in a nearby circuit. It quantifies the coupling of the magnetic flux between two conductors. The SI unit for mutual inductance is the henry (H), defined as one volt-second per ampere.",
