Question:medium

A series resonant circuit consists of an inductor 'L' and capacitor 'C' which produces resonant frequency 'f'. If 'L' is increased by '2L' and 'C' is changed to '9C' the resonant frequency will be

Show Hint

Resonant frequency f = 1 / (2 pi sqrt(LC)).

  • \(\frac{f}{3}\)
  • \(\frac{f}{2}\)
  • \(\frac{f}{2\sqrt{2}}\)
  • \(\frac{f}{3\sqrt{3}}\)
Show Solution

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Product LC
Originally $LC$. Now $(3L)(9C) = 27LC$.

Step 2: Frequency
$f \propto (LC)^{-1/2}$, so $f' = f/\sqrt{27}$.

Step 3: Simplify
$\sqrt{27} = 3\sqrt3$. Option (D).

Final Answer:
Option (D). \[ \boxed{\frac{f}{3\sqrt{3}}} \]
