Figure 1.14 Inductance of a coil

               The emf induced, e will be

















               where μ is the permeability of the core material; ℓ is the length of flux path;
               A is the area of the coil.substituting,













               or,







               where








               L is called the coefficient of self inductance or simply self inductance of the
               coil.

                  Inductance of a coil is, therefore, dependent upon the permeability of the
               core material. If we put iron as the core material instead of any non-magnetic
