# An ideal air-core solenoid has a length of \(0.50\text{ m}\), a cross-sectional area of \(2.0 \times 10^{-3}\text{ m}^2\), and is uniformly wound with \(1000\text{ turns}\) of wire. What is the self-inductance of the solenoid?

An ideal air-core solenoid has a length of \(0.50\text{ m}\), a cross-sectional area of \(2.0 \times 10^{-3}\text{ m}^2\), and is uniformly wound with \(1000\text{ turns}\) of wire. What is the self-inductance of the solenoid?

- **A.** \(2.5 \times 10^{-3}\text{ H}\)
- **B.** \(5.0 \times 10^{-3}\text{ H}\)
- **C.** \(1.0 \times 10^{-2}\text{ H}\)
- **D.** \(2.0 \times 10^{-2}\text{ H}\)
