Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Quality factor Q=ω0LR=1RLCQ = \frac{\omega_0 L}{R} = \frac{1}{R}\sqrt{\frac{L}{C}}; bandwidth =RL= \frac{R}{L}.
  2. QBW=1RLC⋅LR=LR2LC\frac{Q}{\text{BW}} = \frac{1}{R}\sqrt{\frac{L}{C}}\cdot\frac{L}{R} = \frac{L}{R^2}\sqrt{\frac{L}{C}}
  3. LR2LC=L2R2⋅1LC\frac{L}{R^2}\sqrt{\frac{L}{C}} = \frac{L^2}{R^2}\cdot\frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}}
  4. So the answer is (a) 1LC L2R2\sqrt{\frac{1}{LC}}\,\frac{L^2}{R^2}.
