Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\mu_0 n^2 \mathrm{Al}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Magnetic flux, \(\phi_{\mathrm{B}}=\mathrm{B} . \mathrm{A}\) for solenoid, \(\mathrm{B}=\mu_0 \mathrm{n}\) I \[ \phi_{\mathrm{B}}=\mu_0 \mathrm{nIA} \] The total magnetic flux associates with the solenoid…
