Centripetal Acceleration

Step 1: Understanding Self-Inductance
Self-inductance ( ) of a coil is given by: where:
- is the self-inductance (Henry),
- is the number of turns,
- is the magnetic flux linked with the coil,
- is the current passing through the coil.
Step 2: Effect of Changing Current on Self-Inductance
- Self-inductance depends on the geometry and material of the coil, not on the current passing through it.
- When current increases from to , the magnetic flux ( ) will increase proportionally, but the self-inductance remains constant.
Step 3: Conclusion
Since self-inductance is independent of current, the new self-inductance remains: Thus, the self-inductance remains unchanged at .
