Self-inductance L of a coil relates EMF to:
ARate of change of its own current: EMF = -L dI/dt
BFlux
CIts current
DCharge
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Rate of change of its own current: EMF = -L dI/dt
**Self-induced EMF:** ε = -L dI/dt.
L (henries) measures flux linkage per unit current through the same coil.
Opposes change in current (Lenz).
