Lenz's Law

The direction of an induced current is such that it'll oppose the change causing it.

Inductance

The property of a conductor to oppose a change in current flowing through itself.

self inductance (L)

The property of a wire, either straight or in a coil, to create an induced voltage that opposes the change in the potential difference across the wire.
