If I connect an inductor (L) to a capacitor (C), I will get an LC oscillator circuit with some natural frequency omega. If I were to quadruple the capacitance of the circuit, what would be the new natural frequency

Respuesta :

The new natural frequency would be ω/2.

we know that,

[tex]f = \frac{1}{2 pi \sqrt{LC} }[/tex] = ω.       -> equation 1

now, when capacitance is quadrupled,

[tex]f' = \frac{1}{2 pi \sqrt{L ( 4C )} }[/tex]

[tex]f' = \frac{1}{2 pi (2)\sqrt{LC} }[/tex].           -> equation 2

substituting value of equation 1 in equation 2 , we get,

[tex]f' = \frac{w}{2}[/tex]

Hence, the new natural frequency of the circuit is ω/2.

what do you mean by frequency ?

The resonant frequency for a particular circuit is the frequency at which this equality stands true. Where L is the inductance in henries and C is the capacitance in farads, this is the  LC circuit's resonant frequency.
