    The current in self-inductance L = 40 mH is increased uniformly from 1 A to 11 A in 4 milliseconds. The induced emf produced in L during this process will be :

    A)  100 V          

    B)  0.2V

    C)  440V          

    D)  40V

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    emf induced in coil is given by \[e=-L\frac{\Delta i}{\Delta t}\] ?. (i) Given, \[L=40\,mH=40\times {{10}^{-3}}H\], \[\Delta i=11-1=10A\] \[\Delta t=4\,ms=4\times {{10}^{-3}}s\] Putting the values in Eq. (i), we obtain \[\left| e \right|=40\times {{10}^{-3}}\times \frac{10}{4\times {{10}^{-3}}}=100\,V\] Note: The minus sign in the Eq. (i) is the reflection of Lenzs law.
