AIIMS 2019 Physics LC Circuits MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11
An oscillator circuit consists of an inductance of 0.5 mH and a capacitor of 20 μF. The resonant frequency of the circuit is nearly
A
15.92 Hz
B
159.2 Hz
C
1592 Hz
D
15912 Hz
Correct Answer
Option C
Detailed Explanation
The resonant frequency of an LC circuit is given by the formula , where is the inductance and is the capacitance. Substituting and , we find , which corresponds to option C. Options A (15.92 Hz) and B (159.2 Hz) are incorrect as they represent frequencies that are orders of magnitude lower than the calculated value, while option D (15912 Hz) is too high, indicating a miscalculation in the formula.
