The number of turns of a long solenoid is doubled while its length and area stay fixed. How does its inductance change?
AIt becomes double
BIt becomes half
CIt remains the same
DIt becomes four times
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. It becomes four times
Inductance varies as N squared, so doubling the turns gives four times the inductance.
