Question

What is self inductance? Name the factors on which self inductance depends.

Answer 1

Self-inductance definition is an inductance in which an electromotive force is produced by self-induction. It is the as the property of the coil due to which it opposes the change of current flowing through it.

Self inductance depends on-

1-Size of coil

2- Shape of the coil

3- Material of the coil

4-Medim

$e.g$ Self inductance of solenoid is $\frac{\mu N^{2}A}{l}$
