Define Self Inductance.

ANSWER : Self-inductance refers to the property of an electric circuit or a coil of wire to oppose changes in the flow of electric current through it. When the current in a coil changes, it creates a magnetic field around it. This changing magnetic field induces an electromotive force (EMF) in the coil, which opposes the original change in current.

The self-inductance of a coil is measured in henries (H) and is represented by the symbol "L." It can be calculated using the formula L = \(\frac{\phi}{I}\), where Φ is the magnetic flux and I is the current flowing through the coil. The higher the self-inductance, the stronger the opposition to changes in current.
