$A$ copper wire is wound on a wooden frame,whose shape is that of an equilateral triangle. If the linear dimension of each side of the frame is increased by a factor of $3$,keeping the number of turns of the coil per unit length of the frame the same,then the self-inductance of the coil:

The current in self-inductance $L=40\; mH$ is to be increased uniformly from $1\; A$ to $11\; A$ in $4\; ms$. The $e.m.f.$ induced in the inductor during this process is ..... $V$.

When the current in a coil changes from $8 \ A$ to $2 \ A$ in $3 \times 10^{-3} \ s$,the induced $e.m.f.$ in the coil is $2 \ V$. The self-inductance of the coil in millihenry $(mH)$ is:

The self-induced $emf$ of a coil is $25\,V$. When the current in it is changed at a uniform rate from $10\,A$ to $25\,A$ in $1\,s$,the change in the energy stored in the inductor is......$J$.

This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2.$ Of the four choices given after the Statements,choose the one that best describes the two Statements.
Statement $1 :$ Self inductance of a long solenoid of length $L,$ total number of turns $N$ and radius $r$ is less than $\frac{{\pi {\mu _0}{N^2}{r^2}}}{L}$
Statement $2:$ The magnetic induction in the solenoid in Statement $1$ carrying current $I$ is $\frac{{{\mu _0}NI}}{L}$ in the middle of the solenoid but becomes less as we move towards its ends.
