  1. A inertia
  2. B kinetic energy
  3. C potential energy
  4. D velocity
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) inertia

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Physically, the self inductance plays the role of inertia. It is the electromagnetic analogue of mass in mechanics. So work needs to be done against the back emf in establishing the current.
