The fractional half-width ΔӬdof a resonance curve, such as the ones in Fig. 31-16, is the width of the curve at half the maximum value of I. Show that ΔӬdӬ=R×(3cI)12, whereӬ is the angular frequency at resonance. Note that the ratioΔӬdӬ increases with R, as Fig. 31-16 shows.

ΔӬdӬ=R3CL

Step by step solution

01

Listing the given quantities:

Fractional half width is given by,

Ӭd2-Ӭd1Ӭ=ΔӬdӬ

Here, Ó¬is the angular frequency at resonance.

02

Understanding the concepts of resonance:

When driving angular frequency Ó¬dis equal to natural angular frequencyÓ¬of the circuit, then the current amplitude is maximum becauseZ=R.

The above condition is satisfied only when the capacitive reactance is exactly matched with inductive reactance, and the condition is called the resonance condition.

Formulas:

Inductive reactance,

χL=ӬdL

Capacitive reactance,

χc=1ӬdC

Impedance,

Z=R2+χL-χC2

The amplitude of current,

I=εmZ

03

Explanation:

We have angular frequency Ó¬dcorresponding to maximum current amplitude as

localid="1663234080329" Ó¬d=1LC=1LC

1LC=Ó¬ ...(1)

For a given amplitude of emf, current amplitude is given by

I=εmZ

Substitute R2+χL-χC2 for Z in the above equation.

I=εmR2+χL-χC2 ….. (2)

To find the angular frequency corresponding to half of the maximum current amplitude,you have

I=εm2R

Substitute the above equation into equation (2).

εm2R=εmR2+χL-χC212R=1R2+χL-χC2

Squaring both sides, you get

14R2=1R2+χL-χC2

Rearranging the terms in the above equation, you get

4R2=R2+χL-χC23R2=χL-χC2

Taking the square root on both sides,

±3·R=χL-χC=ӬdL-1ӬdC

Simplifying the above equation further, you get a quadratic equation inÓ¬d.

LCӬd2±3RCӬd-1=0

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

The solution is

Ӭd=-±3RC±3RC2+4LC2LC

As negative frequency is not possible, you will neglect the negative sign in the second term. Hence, you have

Ӭd=-±3RC+3RC2+4LC2LC

Now considering the positive sign, letÓ¬d=Ó¬d1. The corresponding root will givelower angular frequencyÓ¬d1.

Ó¬d1=-3RC+3RC2+4LC2LC

Similarly, considering the negative sign, let Ó¬d=Ó¬d2. The corresponding root will give higher angular frequency Ó¬d2.

ΔӬd=Ӭd2-Ӭd1=+3RC+3RC2+4LC2LC+3RC-3RC2+4LC2LCΔӬd=3RC+3RC2LC=3RL

Divide both side by angular frequency.

ΔӬdӬ=3RLӬ

From equation (1), substitute 1LCfor Ó¬in the above right hand side expression, hence you obtain

ΔӬdӬ=3RL×LC=R3CL

From the above equation, notice that fractional width is directly proportional to resistanceR.

Hence ifRincreases,thebell-shaped curve will become broader. Therefore,

ΔӬdӬ=R3CL
