Your answer looks correct to me. The EMF is constant since the increase in I is linear. The inductance is a physical quantity, not affected by current (for an air core inductor). If the inductor had a ferrite or iron core, would that change your answer?alexdr5398 said:
If the current increases, would anything else on the right side of the above equation change?alexdr5398 said:

Yes. If the current doubles, then the flux doubles. So, the formula would leave L unchanged.alexdr5398 said:
Yes. The inductance is determined by the physical properties of the inductor (size, shape, number of wraps, type of core, etc.) as berkeman pointed out.
As current is increased in a coil of wire, the strength of the magnetic field produced also increases. This is due to the flow of electrons through the wire, which creates a circular magnetic field around the wire.
Increasing current in a coil of wire will also increase the resistance of the wire. This is because as more electrons flow through the wire, there is increased friction and collisions between them and the wire's atoms, resulting in higher resistance.
As current is increased in a coil of wire, the temperature of the wire also increases. This is due to the Joule heating effect, where the resistance of the wire causes some of the electrical energy to be converted into heat.
Yes, increasing the current beyond the wire's capacity can damage the coil. This is because the wire may overheat and melt, or the increased magnetic field may cause the wire to physically deform or break.
The length and thickness of the wire can affect the strength of the magnetic field produced by the current. Longer and thinner wires will have a weaker magnetic field, while shorter and thicker wires will have a stronger magnetic field. This is due to the amount of space available for the magnetic field to form within the wire.
