Resonance, Bandwidth & Q Factor

In series RLC resonator, if the self inductance and capacitance become double, the new resonant frequency (f2) and new quality factor (Q2) will be:

(f1 = original resonant frequency, Q1 = original quality factor)

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. f=12πLCf = \frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC}}: with 2L2L and 2C2C, LC\sqrt{LC} doubles, so f2=f12f_2 = \frac{f_1}{2}.
  2. Q=1RLCQ = \frac{1}{R}\sqrt{\frac{L}{C}}: 2L2C=LC\frac{2L}{2C} = \frac{L}{C}, so Q2=Q1Q_2 = Q_1.
  3. So the answer is (a) f2=f12f_2 = \frac{f_1}{2} and Q2=Q1Q_2 = Q_1.
