Two coils are made of copper wires of same length. In the first coil the number of turns is 3 n and radius is r. In the second coil number of turns is n and the radius is 3r. The ratio of self-inductances of the coils will be

a
3 : 1
b
1 : 3
c
9 : 1
d
1 : 9

detailed solution

Correct option is A

The self-inductance of the coil isL=μ0πN2r2 or L∝N2r ∴L1L2=N1N22r1r2=3nn2r3r=3:1
