A solenoid has an inductance of 0.179-mH with 53 turns of wire. Suppose the cross-sectional area of the coil is reduced by half, its length is doubled, and the number of turns of wire is also doubled. What is the new inductance of the solenoid? Express your answer in millihenry and round your answer to the nearest thousandth (3 decimal places).
