    E=1/2(Li^2)
    E*=1/2(L(sq(2).i)^2 (changed current i into Sqrt(2)i )
    =2(1/2Li^2)
    =2E
    So to get double energy current has to be changed into sqrt(2)i
    Change in current=Sqrt(2)i-i
    =1.414-1=0.414=41.4%

    Energy stored =1/2(L*i^2)
    =>2E=2*(1/2(L*i^2))
    =>2E=1/2(L*(sqrt(2)i^2))
    Hence,
    change in current =sqrt(2)i-i
    =1.414-1
    =0.414
    therefore change in current = 41.4%
