In an LC circuit, angular frequency at resonance is ' '. What will be the new angular frequency when inductor's inductance is made two times and capacitor's capacitance is made four times?
Options
- A2 2
- B2
- C2
- D2 2
Correct answer
A. 2 2
Step-by-step solution
The resonant angular frequency of an LC circuit is given by = 1 LC . When the inductance is doubled and the capacitance is quadrupled, the new values become L' = 2L and C' = 4C . The new resonant frequency is ' = 1 L'C' = 1 (2L)(4C) = 1 8LC . This simplifies to ' = 1 2 2 LC = 2 2 . The new angular frequency is therefore 2 2 , which corresponds to option A .
