The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the reactance of both the inductor and the capacitor at the given frequencies. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Reactance**: - The reactance of an inductor (X_L) is given by the formula: \[ X_L = \omega L \] - The reactance of a capacitor (X_C) is given by the formula: \[ X_C = \frac{1}{\omega C} \] 2. **Given Condition at Frequency ω₁**: - At frequency ω₁, the reactance of the inductor equals the reactance of the capacitor: \[ X_L = X_C \] - Substituting the formulas, we have: \[ \omega_1 L = \frac{1}{\omega_1 C} \] 3. **Rearranging the Equation**: - From the above equation, we can rearrange it to find a relationship between L and C: \[ \omega_1^2 LC = 1 \] 4. **Change of Frequency to ω₂**: - Now, we change the frequency to ω₂ = 2ω₁. We need to find the new reactances: - For the inductor at ω₂: \[ X_L(ω_2) = \omega_2 L = 2\omega_1 L \] - For the capacitor at ω₂: \[ X_C(ω_2) = \frac{1}{\omega_2 C} = \frac{1}{2\omega_1 C} \] 5. **Calculating the Ratio of Reactances**: - Now, we calculate the ratio of the reactance of the inductor to that of the capacitor at ω₂: \[ \frac{X_L(ω_2)}{X_C(ω_2)} = \frac{2\omega_1 L}{\frac{1}{2\omega_1 C}} = 2\omega_1 L \cdot 2\omega_1 C = 4\omega_1^2 LC \] 6. **Substituting the Relationship from Step 3**: - From step 3, we know that ω₁² LC = 1. Thus: \[ 4\omega_1^2 LC = 4 \cdot 1 = 4 \] 7. **Final Result**: - Therefore, the ratio of the reactance of the inductor to that of the capacitor at frequency ω₂ is: \[ \frac{X_L(ω_2)}{X_C(ω_2)} = 4 \] ### Conclusion: The ratio of the reactance of the inductor to that of the capacitor when the frequency is changed to ω₂ = 2ω₁ is **4**.
