NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Hard-Class 12
In an RLC series circuit, if the resistance R is doubled while keeping inductance L and capacitance C constant, how does the quality factor Q change?
A
Q is halved
B
Q doubles
C
Q remains the same
D
Q quadruples
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The quality factor Q is given by Q = ω₀L/R, where ω₀ is the resonant frequency. Doubling R while keeping L constant results in Q being halved.
