Electromagnetic Induction Ques 17

17. A long solenoid has $500$ turns. When a current of $2 $ ampere is passed through it, the resulting magnetic flux linked with each turn of the solenoid is $4 \times 10^{-3}$ $ Wb$. The self-inductance of the solenoid is

[2008]

(a) $2.5$ henry

(b) $ 2.0$ henry

(c) $1.0$ henry

(d) $40$ henry

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 17.(c)

Solution:

  1. (c) Total number of turns in the solenoid, $N=500$

Current, $I=2$ $ A$.

Magnetic flux linked with each turn

$=4 \times 10^{-3}$ $ Wb$

As, $\phi=LI$ or $N \phi=LI \Rightarrow L=\frac{Nf}{1}$

$=\frac{500^{\prime} 4^{\prime} 10^{-3}}{2}$

henry $=1 $ $H$.
