Question 45

Alternating Current Circuits

In the a.c. circuit diagram above, the resonance frequency is

Diagram for this question
  1. A.5000π Hz
  2. B.2500π Hz
  3. C.5000/π Hz
  4. D.2500/π Hz
Show the answer and explanation

Answer: D (2500/π Hz)

Explanation

f0 = 1/(2π√(LC)) = 1/(2π√(8 × 10−3 × 5 × 10−6)) = 1/(2π × 2 × 10−4) = 2500/π Hz.
