Resonance, Bandwidth & Q Factor

A series resonant circuit consists of an inductor 'L' and capacitor 'C' which produces resonant frequency 'f'. If 'L' is increased by '2L' and 'C' is changed to '9C' the resonant frequency will be

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. f∝1LCf \propto \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{LC}}
  2. L′=L+2L=3LL' = L + 2L = 3L, C′=9C⇒L′C′=27LCC' = 9C \Rightarrow L'C' = 27LC
  3. f′=f27=f33f' = \dfrac{f}{\sqrt{27}} = \dfrac{f}{3\sqrt{3}}. So the answer is (d).
