The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) provided. ### Step 1: Understanding the Assertion The assertion states that when the number of turns in a coil is doubled, the coefficient of self-inductance of the coil becomes four times. ### Step 2: Understanding the Formula for Self-Inductance The self-inductance \( L \) of a coil is given by the formula: \[ L = \mu_0 \frac{N^2 A}{l} \] where: - \( L \) = self-inductance - \( \mu_0 \) = permeability of free space - \( N \) = number of turns in the coil - \( A \) = cross-sectional area of the coil - \( l \) = length of the coil From this formula, we can see that self-inductance \( L \) is proportional to the square of the number of turns \( N \). ### Step 3: Doubling the Number of Turns If the number of turns \( N \) is doubled, then: \[ N' = 2N \] Substituting this into the formula for self-inductance: \[ L' = \mu_0 \frac{(2N)^2 A}{l} = \mu_0 \frac{4N^2 A}{l} = 4L \] This shows that when the number of turns is doubled, the self-inductance becomes four times the original value. ### Step 4: Evaluating the Reason The reason states that the coefficient of self-inductance is proportional to the square of the number of turns. From our analysis, we have confirmed that this is indeed true, as we derived from the formula for self-inductance. ### Conclusion Both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) are true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion. ### Final Answer Both statements are true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion. ---
