A wire of fixed length is wound in such a way that it forms a solenoid of length 'l' and radius 'r'. Its self-inductance is found to be Z. Now if same wire is wound in such a way that it forms a solenoid of length I /2 and radius r /2, then the self-inductance will be

a
2L
b
L
c
4L
d
8L

detailed solution

Correct option is A

L=μ0N2πr2l Length of wire =N2πr= Constant (=C, suppose )∴ L=μ0C2πr2πr2l∴ L∝1l∴  Self-inductance will become 2L .

Two different coils have self-inductance  L1=8mH, L2=2mH . The current in one coil is increased at a constant rate. The current in the second coil is also increased at the same rate. At a certain instant of time, the power given to the two coils is the same. At that time the current, the induced voltage and the energy stored in the first coil are i1,V1 and W1 respectively. Corresponding values for the second coil at the same instant are i2,V2  and W2 respectively. Then
