Self inductance of solenoid is

Self inductance of solenoid is
  1. direct proportional to current flowing through coil
  2. directly proportional to the length
  3. directly proportional to its area of cross-section
  4. inversely proportional to its area of cross-section

Solution

Self-inductance: It's a property of a coil that opposes changes in the current flowing through it. It arises due to the coil's ability to induce an electromotive force (EMF) within itself when the current through it changes. The formula \(L=N \Phi / I\) captures this relationship.
