An air-cored solenoid with $30 \ cm$ length,area of cross-section $25 \ cm^2$,and $500$ turns carries a current of $2.5 \ A$. The current is suddenly switched off in a brief time of $10^{-3} \ s$. How much is the average back emf induced across the ends of the open switch in the circuit (in $V$)? (Ignore the variation in magnetic field near the ends of the solenoid.)

  • A
    $6.54$
  • B
    $65.4$
  • C
    $654$
  • D
    $0.654$
