An inductor of inductance 1000 mH is connected in series with a resistance, a variable capacitance and an AC source of frequency 2.0 kHz. What value of the capacitance result in drawing the maximum current from the circuit? |
$63\mu F$ $63nF$ $63mF$ $63F$ |
$63nF$ |
The correct answer is option (2) : $63nF$ At resonance current is maximum $⇒omega L =\frac{1}{\omega C}⇒C=\frac{1}{\omega^2L}⇒C=\frac{1}{(2\pi f)^2\times L}$ $⇒C=\frac{1}{(2\times \pi \times 2 \times 10^3}=63nF$ |
