JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 -7. Alternating current

In an \(LC\) oscillator, if values of inductance and capacitance become twice and eight times, respectively, then the resonant frequency of oscillator becomes \(x\) times its initial resonant frequency \(\omega_0\). The value of \(x\) is:

  1. A \(\frac{1}{4}\)
  2. B \(16\)
  3. C \(\frac{1}{16}\)
  4. D \(4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{1}{4}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The resonance frequency of LC oscillations circuit is \(\omega_0=\frac{1}{\sqrt{ LC }}\) \(L \rightarrow 2 L\) \(C \rightarrow 8 C\) \(\omega=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2 L \times 8 C }}=\frac{1}{4 \sqrt{ LC }}\) \(\omega=\frac{\omega_0}{4}\) So \(x =\frac{1}{4}\)
