Resonance, Bandwidth & Q Factor

A telegraph line of length 100 km has a capacity of 0.01 μ\muF/km and it carries an alternating current at 0.5 kilo cycle per second. If minimum impedance is required, then the value of the inductance that needs to be introduced in series is _____________ mH. (if π=10\pi = \sqrt{10})

Numerical answer type. Work it out, then open the answer.

Show answer and solution

Answer: 100

  1. Total capacitance C=0.01 μF/km×100 km=1 μFC = 0.01\ \mu\text{F/km}\times100\text{ km} = 1\ \mu\text{F}.
  2. Minimum impedance means resonance: L=1ω2C=14π2f2CL = \frac{1}{\omega^2 C} = \frac{1}{4\pi^2 f^2 C}
  3. L=14π2(500)2(10−6)=1π2=110 HL = \frac{1}{4\pi^2(500)^2(10^{-6})} = \frac{1}{\pi^2} = \frac{1}{10}\text{ H}
  4. L=100 mHL = 100\text{ mH}
