If an engineer designs a transformer with increased magnetic flux leakage, which consequence follows?

💡 Explanation

Increased magnetic flux leakage reduces the portion of the flux produced by one coil that links with the other coil; therefore, the mutual inductance decreases because mutual inductance relies on the magnetic flux linkage between the two coils, rather than self-inductance changes.
