Options:
  • A \( 25 \mathrm{mH} \)
  • B \( 50 \mathrm{mH} \)
  • C \( 75 \mathrm{mH} \)
  • D \( 100 \mathrm{mH} \)

The correct answer is: \( 25 \mathrm{mH} \)

From Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, magnitude of average induced emf is given by, ε=-Lit, where L, i & t represents coefficient of self inductance, current and time respectively.
On substituting corresponding parameters in above relation, we have 
1=-L10-(-10)0.5
L=1×0.520=140=0.025 H=25 mH
