A solenoid is to have an inductance of 0.285 mH, a cross-sectional area of  6.00x10-4 m2, and a length of 36.0cm. How many turns per unit length should it have? (Ans. 1.02x103 turns/m) If the self-induced emf is -12.5 mV at a given time, at what rate is the current changing at that instant. (Ans. 43.9 A/s)
