The function of the Q- Meter is to _________(a) Measure capacitance(b) Measure inductance(c) Measure quality factor of capacitor and inductor(d) Measure form factor of capacitor and inductorThe question was posed to me by my college director while I was bunking the class.Origin of the question is Advanced Problems on Q Meter in section Electronic Instruments of Electrical Measurements

Answer»

The correct option is (c) Measure quality factor of CAPACITOR and inductor

The best I can explain: Q-Meters are intended to measure the quality factor of a capacitor and inductor. Q = \(\FRAC{Lω}{R} = \frac{1}{ωCR} = \frac{V_C}{V_A}\). They are not used for MEASURING capacitances and inductances, unlike AC Bridges.
