When the number of turns in a coil are made 3 times without any change in the length of the coil, its self inductance becomes

  1. A (1.5) times
  2. B two times
  3. C three times
  4. D nine times
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) nine times

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

- Formula: Self-inductance \(L\) of a coil is proportional to the square of the number of turns ( \(N^2\) ).
- Calculation: If the number of turns \(N\) is tripled, the new self-inductance becomes \((3 N)^2=\) \(9 N^2\). This means the self-inductance becomes nine times the original.
