How to Practise Self and Mutual Inductance
Revise L = μ0N²A/l for a long solenoid, the energy stored U = ½LI² and the induced emf −L dI/dt. Practise the mutual inductance of coaxial coils and of a coil near a long wire, where M depends only on geometry.
Then work through the LR circuit questions on the growth of current and the time constant.
