Resonance, Bandwidth & Q Factor

In a series LCR circuit, C=2 μF,L=1 mHC = 2\ \mu\text{F}, L = 1\text{ mH} and R=10 ΩR = 10\ \Omega. The ratio of the energies stored in the inductor and the capacitor, when the maximum current flows in the circuit, is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Maximum current flows at resonance: I=VRI = \frac{V}{R}, i.e. V=IRV = IR.
  2. Energy in inductor UL=12LI2U_L = \frac{1}{2}LI^2; energy in capacitor (taken with the applied voltage V=IRV = IR) UC=12CV2=12CI2R2U_C = \frac{1}{2}CV^2 = \frac{1}{2}CI^2R^2.
  3. ULUC=LCR2=10−32×10−6×100=5\frac{U_L}{U_C} = \frac{L}{CR^2} = \frac{10^{-3}}{2\times10^{-6}\times 100} = 5
  4. So the answer is (a) 5:15 : 1.
