    A transistor-oscillator using a resonant circuit with an inductor L (of negligible resistance) and a capacitor C in series produce oscillations of frequency\[f.\] If L is doubled and C is changed to 4C, the frequency will be

    A) \[f/4\]

    B) \[8f\]

    C) \[f/2\sqrt{2}\]

    D) \[f/2\]  

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    In a series LC circuit, frequency of LC oscillations is given by \[f=\frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{LC}}\]or \[f\propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}}\] \[\frac{{{f}_{1}}}{{{f}_{2}}}=\sqrt{\frac{{{L}_{2}}{{C}_{2}}}{{{L}_{1}}{{C}_{1}}}}\] Given, \[{{L}_{1}}=L,{{C}_{1}}=C,{{L}_{2}}=2L,{{C}_{2}}=4C,{{f}_{1}}=f\] \[\frac{f}{{{f}_{2}}}=\sqrt{\frac{2L\times 4C}{LC}}=\sqrt{8}\Rightarrow {{f}_{2}}=\frac{f}{2\sqrt{2}}\]
