Solution
0.1 V
Explanation:
Step 1:
Let e = the induced emf in the coil
Substitute the given values from Question,
Let, self-inductance = L
Change in current = dI
Change in time = dt
`L = 10 mH` .....(1)
`dI = 1 - 0`
= 1A ......(2)
`dt = 0.1s` .....(3)
Applying the concept of Self Inductance or Inductance of the coil.
We get, e =`L (dI)/(dt)` .....(4)
Step 2:
Substitute from (1), (2), (3) and (4) and calculate:
e = `L (dI)/(dt)`
e =`10 xx 10^-3 xx 1/0.1`
e = `0.1v`
