Question
i. Define the term self-inductance and write its S.I. unit.
ii. Obtain the expression for the mutual inductance of two long co-axial solenoids $S_1$ and $S_2$ wound one over the other, each of length $L$ and radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ and $n_1$ and $n_2$ number of turns per unit length, when a current $I$ is set up in the outer solenoid $S _2$.
