Explanation:

Self inductance is defines as the induction of a voltage in a current-carrying wire when the current in the wire itself is changing. Self-inductance of a coil is numerically equal to the amount of magnetic flux linked with the coil when unit current flows through the coil.

According to Faraday's law,

  • \(E=-L\frac{dI}{dt}\)

where, E is E.M.F. of and L is self inductance and \(\frac{dI}{dt}\) is rate of change of current.

 

Also, \(E=-\frac{d\phi}{dt}\)

  • \(\implies-\frac{d\phi}{dt}=-L\frac{dI}{dt}=\frac{d(NBA)}{dt}=L\frac{dI}{dt}\)

 

  • \(\frac{d(NBA)}{dt}=-L\frac{dI}{dt}\)

 

  • \(\frac{d(NBA)}{dt}=L\frac{dI}{dt}\)

So, self inductance is directly proportional to area of the coil,\(L\propto BA\)

Hence, the correct answer is Option-3-the area of the coil.
