Inductance.—The cause of the self-induction is dueto the property possessed by the wire or coil called inductance,just as the resistance of a wire… … Fig. 279. -Experiments Illustrating the ExtraCurrent of Self-induction.

The amount of inductance offered by acoil depends on the number of turns of wire in the coil andon the magnetic conductivity of the medium surrounding it.A coil of 50 turns…
