Detailed Solution

The self-inductance of a solenoid of N-turns is proportional to N2.
According to Faraday’s laws of electromagnetic induction, an emf is induced in the coil, which opposes the change that causes it. This phenomenon is called self-inductance, and the emf induced is called back emf, current so produced in the coil is called induced current.
Self-inductance of a solenoid is given by
L=μ0N2Al
Where μ0= Absolute permeability
            N= Number of turns
             l= Length of the solenoid
            A= Area of the solenoid
L α N2
From the equation of self inductance of solenoid, we can say that the self-inductance of solenoid is proportional directly to the square of the number of turns of the solenoid.
