The correct answer is: $1.5 \mathrm{H}$
As we know, Self-inductance of the solenoid
$\begin{array}{l}
\mathrm{L}=\frac{\mu_{\mathrm{r}} \cdot \mu_{0} \mathrm{~N}^{2} \mathrm{~A}}{\mathrm{I}} \\
=\frac{600 \times 4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \times(2000)^{2} \times(1.5) \times 10^{-4}}{0.3} \\
=1.5 \mathrm{H}
\end{array}$
