X and Y plates of a CRO are connected to unequal voltages of equal frequency with phase shift of 90°. The Lissajous figure on the screen will be?(a) Circle(b) Straight line(c) Ellipse(d) Figure of eightI had been asked this question in quiz.Enquiry is from Advanced Problems on CRT and CRO topic in chapter Oscilloscopes of Electrical Measurements

Answer»

Right option is (C) ELLIPSE

For explanation: The pattern observed on the CRT, when two sinusoidal signals are applied to the X-X and Y-Y plates of the CRT are known as Lissajous pattern.

sin φ = \(\FRAC{y_1}{y_2} = \frac{X_1}{X_2}\)

Here, the voltages are unequal and frequencies are EQUAL with a phase SHIFT of 90°. Therefore the Lissajous figure on the screen will be an ellipse.
