Understanding the concept of frequency of LC circuit

When driving angular frequency is equal to the natural angular frequency of the circuit, then the current amplitude is maximum because of Z=R. This condition is satisfied only when the capacitive reactance is exactly matched with inductive reactance, and it is called the condition of resonance. So, by substituting the given values in the corresponding formulae, we can find the required quantities.

The capacitive reactance of the capacitor,

XC=1Ó¬dC ...(1)

The inductive reactance of the inductor,

XL=Ó¬dL ...(2)

The impedance of theLCRcircuit for the driving frequency,

Z=R2+XL-Xc2 ...(3)

The current equation using Ohm’s law,

I=εmZ ...(4)

Here, Ris the resistance of the resistor, Cis the capacitance of the capacitor, Lis the inductance of the inductor andÓ¬dis the driving angular frequency.

03

a) Calculation of the angular frequency

For a given resistance R and emf εm, I is maximum when.role="math" localid="1663000356720" χL-χC=0.

This implies XL=XC, thus using equations (1) and (2) we get theangular frequencyÓ¬d corresponding to maximum current amplitude as follows:

Ó¬dL=1Ó¬dCÓ¬d2=1LC=1LC

For the given values, we have

Ӭd=11.0H×20.0×10-6F=10320.0rad/s=223.6rad/s ≈224rad/s

Hence, the angular frequency is 224rad/s.

04

b) Calculation of the maximum current

For the condition of resonance, we have Z=R,

So the maximum value of amplitude of current is given using equation (4) as follows:

I=30.0V5.0Ω=6.0A

Hence, the value of the current is 6.0A.

05

c) Calculation of the lower angular frequency

To find lower angular frequency Ó¬d1corresponding to half of the maximum current amplitude we have the following equation using equation (3) in equation (4) as follows:

I2=εmR2+XL-XC2εm2R=εmR2+XL-XC212R=1R2+XL-XC214R2=1R2+XL-XC2

Solving further

4R2=R2+XL-XC23R2=XL-XC2

Taking the square root on both sides of the above equation, we get that

localid="1663002854238" ±3·R=XL-XC=ӬdL-1ӬdC(from equations (1) and (2))

On simplifying the above equation further, we get a quadratic equation inÓ¬das follows:

LCӬd2±3·RCӬd-1=0

The two roots of this equation will givelower angular frequencyÓ¬d1and higher angular frequencyÓ¬d2corresponding to half of the maximum current amplitude.

On solving the quadratic equation, we get,

Ӭd=-±3·RC±3RC2+4LC2LC

As negative frequency is not possible, so we can neglect negative sign in the second term. Thus, we get the angular frequency equation as:

Ӭd=-±3·RC+3RC2+4LC2LC

Now considering the positive sign, i.e. +3·RC, we can get the lower angular frequency Ӭd1.from the above equation as follows:

Ӭd1=-3·RC+3RC2+4LC2LC

We have, the above values as:

RC=5.0Ω×20.0×10-6F=10-4Ω¹ó

And

LC=1.0H×20.0×10-6F=0.2×10-4HF

Now, substituting the above values, we can get the lower angular frequency as follows:

Ó¬d1=-3×10-4Ω F+3×10-8Ω¹ó2+4×0.2×10-4HF2×0.2×10-4HF=219rad/s

Hence, the value of the frequency is 219rad/s.

06

d) Calculation of the higher angular frequency

Similarly, considering the negative sign, i.e. -3·RC, from equation, we can get the higher angular frequencyӬd2 for the above values as follows:

Ó¬d2=+3·RC+3RC2+4LC2LC=3×10-4 Ω¹ó+3×10-8Ω¹ó2+4×0.2×10-4HF2×0.2×10-4HF=228rad/s

Hence, the value of the frequency is 228rad/s.

07

e) Calculation of the fractional half-width

Resonance curve for this circuit will have the following fractional width as follows:

(Ó¬d2-Ó¬d1)Ó¬=228.0rad/s-219.0rad/s224.0rad/s=0.040

Hence, the value of the fractional width is 0.040.
