Problems in Inductance
(i) A Solenoid has inductance of 20 mH. If the length of the Solenoid is increased by 2
times and the radius is decreased to half of its original value. Find new inductance

turns of wire. If B is 1 Tesla and µr =500, what is the current required to be passed in the winding?

(iv) Total Inductance when the coils are in series with flux in opposite sense
L = L1 + L2 - 2M = 0.1 + 1.61 - 2 x 0.402 = 0.91
