A radio can tune over the frequency range of a portion of MW broadcasr band: 800kHz to 1200kHz. IF its LC circuit has an effective inductance of 200`muH`, what must be the range of the variable capacitor? [Hint: for tuning, the natural frequency of the LC circuit should be equal to the frequency of the radio wave.]

Answer» `f=1/(2pisqrt(LC))`or,`C=1/(4pi^2f^2L)`
when L=`200muH` and f=800 kHz,

A radio can tune over the frequency range of a portion of MW broadcast band (800 kHz to 1200 kHz). If its LC circuit has an effective inductance of `200 mu H`, what must be the range of its variable capacitor ?

Answer» The range of frequency (v) of a radio is 800KHz to 1200 KHz.
Lower tuning frequency, `v_(1)=800KHz=800xx10^(3)Hz`
Upeer tuning frequency, `v_(2)=1200KHz=1200xx10^(3)Hz`
Effective inductance of circuitL=200`muH=200xx10^(-6)H`
Capacitance of variable capacitor for `v_(1)` is given as,
`=(1)/(omega_(1)^(2)L)`
Where,
`omega_(1)=` Angular frequency for capacitor `C_(1)`
`=2piv_(1)=2pixx800xx10^(-3) "rad"s^(-1)`
`therefore C_(1)=(1)/((2pixx800xx10^(3))^(2)xx200xx10^(-6))`

Obtain the answers to (a) and (b) in Q .15, if the circuit is connected to 110 V, 12 kHz supply. Hence explain the statement that a capacitor is a conductor at very high frequencies. Compare this behaviour with that of a capacitor in d.c. after the steady state.

Answer» Capacitance of the capacitor, `C=100muF=100xx10^(-6)F`
Resistance of the resistor, R=40`Omega`
Supply voltage, V=110V
Frequency of the supply. V=12KHz=`12xx10^(3)Hz`
`= omega=2nv=2xxnxx12xx10^(3)03`
=24nxx `10^(3)` rad/s
Peak voltage, `V_(@)=V sqrt(2)=110sqrt(2)V`
`I_(@)=(V_(@))/ (sqrt(R^(2)+(1)/(omega^(2)C^(2)))`
Maximum current.
`=(110sqrt(2))/(sqrt((40)^(2)+(24pixx10^(3)xx1 00 xx10^(-6))^(2))`
For an d RC circuit the voltage lags behind the current by a phase angle of `phi` given as:
`tan phi=((1)/( omegaC))/(R)=(1)/(omegaCR)`
`=(0.2pi)/(180)`rad
`therefore` Time lag `=(phi)/(omega)`
`=(0.2pi)/(180xx24pixx10^(3))=1.55x x10^(-3)s=0.04mus`
Hence `phi` tends to become zero at high frequencies. At a high frequency capacitor C acts as a conductor.
In a dc circuit, after the steady state is acheived `omega=0` . Hence, capacitor C amounts to an open circuit.

Inductance `L = 0.5 H`
Inductance `Z = sqrt(R^(2)+X_(L)^(2))`
`= sqrt(R^(2)+(2pi fL)^(2))`
`= sqrt((100)^(2)+(2xx3.14xx10^(4)xx0.5)^(2))`
`= 31400.15 Omega`
The rms value of current
`I_(0)=sqrt(2)I_("rms")=1.414xx0.00764`
`= 0.01080 A`
and `tan phi = (X_(L))/(R )=(2pi xx1000xx0.5)/(100)`
`tan phi = 100 pi` (very large).

Obtain the answers (a) to (b) in Exercise 15 if the circuit is connected to a 110 V, 12 kHz supply ? Hence, explain the statement that a capacitor is a conductor at very high frequencies. Compare this behaviour with that of a capacitor in a dc circuit after the steady state.

Answer» Given, the ems value of voltage,
`V_("rms")=110 V`
The frequency of capacitor
`f=12kHz = 12000 Hz`.
Capacitance of conductor `C = 10^(-4)F`.
Tesistance `R = 40 Omega`
Capacitive Resistance
`X_(C )=(1)/(2pi fC)=(1)/(2xx3.14xx12000xx10^(-4))`
`= 0.133 Omega`
The rms value of current
`I_("rms")=(V_("rms"))/(sqrt(X_(C )^(2)+R^(2)))=(110)/(sqrt((40)^(2)+(0.133)^(2)))`
`= 2.75 A`.
The maximum value of current,
`I_(0)=sqrt(2) I_("rms")`
`= 1.414xx2.75`
`= 3.9 A`
Here, the value of `X_(C )` is very small, so term containing C is negligible.
`tan phi = (1)/(omega CR)`
`= (1)/(2xx3.14xx12000xx10^(-4)xx40)`
`= (1)/(96pi)`
It is very small.
In DC circuits, `omega = 0`
`X_(C )=(1)/(omega C)=oo`
So, it behaves like an open circuit.

The core of any transformaer is laminated so as toA. energy losses due to Eddy currents may be minimisedB. the weight of the transformer may be reducedC. rusting of the core may be preventedD. ratio of voltage in primary and secondary may be increased

Answer» Correct Answer - A
When magnetic flux linked with a coil changes, induced emf is produced in it and the induced current flows through the wire forming the coil. These induced currents are set up in the conductor in the from closed loops. These currents look like eddies or whirlpools and likewise are known as Eddy currents. These currents oppose the cause of their origin, therefore, due to Eddy currents, a great amount of energy is wasted in form of heat energy. if core of transformer is laminated, then their effect can be minimised.
