Electromagnetic Induction

Question:

In a solenoid, if number of turns per unit length is doubled, then self inductance will become:

Options:

half of its initial value

double of its initial value

$\frac{1}{4}$ times of its initial value

4 times of its initial value

Correct Answer:

4 times of its initial value

Explanation:
Coefficient of Self inductance is directly proportional to square of number of turns in coil, hence on doubling the number of turns. Coefficient of Self inductance becomes four times.
