A coil of wire of radius ' r ' has 600 turns and a self-inductance of 108 mH . The self-inductance of a coil with same radius and 500 turns is
Options
- A80 mH
- B75 mH
- C108 mH
- D90 MH
Correct answer
B. 75 mH
Step-by-step solution
The self-inductance L of a coil is proportional to the square of its number of turns: L N^2 . Given initial values L₁ = 108 mH and N₁ = 600 , and final turns N₂ = 500 , the inductance becomes: L₂ = L₁ ( N₂ N₁ )^2 = 108 ( 500 600 )^2 = 108 ( 5 6 )^2 = 108 25 36 L₂ = 3 25 = 75 mH Final answer: 75 mH
