In series LCR circuit, the capacitance is changed from CC to 4C4C. To keep the resonance frequency unchanged, the new inductance should be :

Options

  1. Areduced by 14L\dfrac{1}{4}L
  2. Bincreased by 2L2L
  3. Creduced by 34L\dfrac{3}{4}L
  4. Dincreased to 4L4L

Correct answer

C. reduced by 34L\dfrac{3}{4}L

Step-by-step solution

As resonance frequency remains unchanged, therefore ω′=ω\omega ' = \omega

⇒1L′C′=1LC⇒ \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{L ' C '}} = \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{LC}}

⇒L′C′=LC⇒ L ' C ' = LC

⇒L′(4C)=LC⇒ L ' \left(4C\right) = LC

⇒L′=L4⇒ L ' = \dfrac{L}{4}

∵∵ Inductance must be decreased by 3L4\dfrac{3L}{4}.
