The correct answer is: 1H

In the case of self-inductance of the solenoid, magnetic flux ϕ is directly proportional to the current i flowing in the coil. The flux through each turn is equal to the flux linkage.

The relation is given as Nϕ=Li, here N is the number of turns and L is inductance.

So putting the given values, we get

1000×4×10-3=L×4

Thus, the self inductance is 1 H.
