Two coils have self-inductance $L_1 = 4 \, mH$ and $L_2 = 1 \, mH$ respectively. The currents in the two coils are increased at the same rate. At a certain instant of time,both coils are given the same power. If $I_1$ and $I_2$ are the currents in the two coils at that instant of time respectively,then the value of $\frac{I_1}{I_2}$ is:

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{4}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{8}$
