A solenoid has a self-inductance of 10H10\,\text{H}. If the current flowing through it changes from 5A5\,\text{A} to 2A2\,\text{A} in 0.1s0.1\,\text{s}, what is the magnitude of the average induced EMF in the solenoid?

Q2easy

Two coils have a mutual inductance of 0.05H0.05\,\text{H}. The current in the primary coil changes from 10A10\,\text{A} to 0A0\,\text{A} in 0.01s0.01\,\text{s}. What is the magnitude of the induced EMF in the secondary coil?

Q3medium

An inductor of 2H2\,\text{H} stores 100J100\,\text{J} of energy. What is the current flowing through the inductor?

Q4easy

Which of the following factors does NOT affect the self-inductance of a solenoid?

Q5medium

Two coils have self-inductances L1=4HL_1 = 4\,\text{H} and L2=9HL_2 = 9\,\text{H}. If the coefficient of coupling between them is 0.50.5, what is their mutual inductance?

Q6easy

A long solenoid has NN turns, length ll, and cross-sectional area AA. If its length is doubled while keeping the number of turns and area constant, how does its self-inductance change?
