The correct answer is: $1.2 \mathrm{H}$
Flux linked with each turn of the solenoid is, $\phi=2.8 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~Wb}$
$\therefore \quad$ Total magnetic flux of the solenoid is,
$\begin{aligned}
& \phi_{\mathrm{net}}=\mathrm{N} \phi \\
& \phi_{\mathrm{net}}=1500 \times 2.8 \times 10^{-3}=4.2 \mathrm{~Wb}
\end{aligned}$
Flux can also be given by, $\phi=\mathrm{LI}$
$\therefore \quad$ The self-inductance of the solenoid is,
$\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{L}=\frac{\phi}{\mathrm{I}}=\frac{4.2}{3.5} \\
& \mathrm{~L}=1.2 \mathrm{H}
\end{aligned}$
